ICT Literacy for Indonesian Workers in Singapore

Information and communication technology (ICT) has become an essential aspect of modern life. Everybody has to deal with ICT, especially for work. In Asia, ICT skills involve five main aspects: software development, ICT project management, enterprise architecture design, network and system administration, and information system and network security. Every year Indonesia sends workers to Singapore. In contrast, most of those workers are skilled workers for the household which their job responsibilities are taking care of the house, babysitting, taking care of the elderly and drivers. However, some of them have ICT skills, and some others do not have them. Therefore, Universitas Negeri Jakarta conducted a webinar on "the success key of digital technology utilization" to enhance the Indonesia Worker's comprehension of ICT literacy, which was participated by 210 Indonesian workers in Singapore. The webinar was divided into three parts, pre-test, speaker presentation, and post-test. The results showed that there was an increment of participant comprehension on ICT literacy after the webinar.
