Broadwing’s Collaboration with the University of Malta

Education is the foundation of lifelong success and professional growth. Celebrated annually on January 24th, the International Day of Education highlights the vital role of learning and the transformative power it holds for the future. With countless opportunities available – from micro-credentials to undergraduate degrees – every individual should have the chance to pursue their educational aspirations.

As technology changes the way we communicate, connect, create, consume and innovate, it is democratising access to opportunity. Education is no exception. – Laura Andreessen

This day holds significant importance for Broadwing Recruitment, a company that places continuous development and education at the core of its operations. Recognising the significance of learning in both the workplace and beyond, Broadwing consistently values opportunities for certifications and further learning. The Flock embraces every opportunity to grow, learn, and evolve.

Broadwing Recruitment’s commitment to promoting the value of education extends beyond corporate boundaries. In collaboration with the University of Malta, the company aims to inspire secondary and post-secondary students to explore educational pathways in the field of Information and Communication Technology (ICT). The Faculty of ICT, established in 2007, welcomes students interested in diverse fields, such as Artificial Intelligence, Computer Engineering, and Microelectronics, fostering an inclusive environment for individuals from various backgrounds.

Broadwing remains dedicated to raising awareness through its ongoing collaboration with the ICT faculty at the University of Malta. This year, the recruiters participated in Fresher’s Week at the University campus, engaging with first-year students about the job market and the skills employers seek today. By providing insights into the significance of internships and part-time positions, they aim to guide the youth who are preparing to navigate the complexities of the professional world.

Throughout the past years, Malta has successfully diversified its economy with the Tech sector, not only by being a key sector in its own right but also being a transversal sector supporting the growth of other important sectors. It stands as one of the island’s fastest-growing industries, presenting expanding job opportunities. The Faculty of Information and Communication Technology is dedicated to excellence in research and providing high-quality education tailored to the evolving needs of the industry.

Today’s youth, having grown up in the digital age, are well-equipped to thrive in this technological landscape. Moreover, Malta has swiftly established itself as a prominent hub for Artificial Intelligence, Robotics and Blockchain.

Broadwing Recruitment is dedicated to creating an environment that encourages continuous professional development, shaping the future landscape for upcoming generations. Recognising the crucial role students will play as future engineers and computer scientists, the firm is committed to preparing them for a world that is consistently evolving.
