What Is an HRDF Approved AI Course?
An HRDF approved AI course — more accurately referred to as an HRD Corp claimable training programme — is a course delivered by a registered HRD Corp training provider. Under Malaysia’s HRD Corp (Human Resource Development Corporation) framework, eligible Malaysian employers contribute a monthly levy, which they can then claim back to fund approved employee training.
This means your organisation can sponsor staff attendance at AI, GenAI, and digital marketing training programmes at significantly reduced or zero net cost — making it one of the most cost-effective ways to build team capability in Malaysia.
Courses are claimable under the SBL-Khas (Skim Bantuan Latihan) scheme, provided the trainer is a registered HRD Corp training provider and the programme is submitted and approved before the training date.
Why Invest in AI Training Now?
AI adoption is accelerating across every industry. According to McKinsey’s State of AI report, over 65% of organisations are now using generative AI in at least one business function — up from 33% just a year prior. Yet most teams still lack the foundational skills to apply AI tools effectively, ethically, and at scale.
The gap is not access to tools. It’s structured capability-building. Without guided training, teams default to ad hoc experimentation — inconsistent output quality, compliance risk, and missed productivity gains.
An HRDF claimable AI course removes the financial barrier so Malaysian organisations can invest in structured, practitioner-led AI training without straining their L&D budget.

How to Claim HRDF (HRD Corp) Funding for AI Training
Malaysian employers who contribute to the HRD Corp levy can apply to have training costs reimbursed. The general process under the SBL-Khas scheme is as follows:
- Confirm your organisation’s eligibility: Organisations with 10 or more Malaysian employees (and certain smaller employers in selected sectors) are required to contribute and are eligible to claim. Check your status on the HRD Corp portal.
- Select a registered training provider: Grit Asia is a registered HRD Corp training provider. Confirm registration status before submitting your claim application.
- Submit the grant application before training commences: Applications must be approved before the training date. Allow sufficient lead time — typically 2 to 4 weeks.
- Attend the training and collect attendance records: All documentation (attendance sheets, invoices, programme outlines) must be filed accurately.
- Submit the claim for reimbursement: After training completion, submit the claim via the HRD Corp eTRiS system for processing.
Grit Asia’s team can guide your HR or L&D team through the documentation requirements to ensure a smooth claim submission. Contact us to begin the process.
