HRDC Registered Training Provider

IT Training That Actually Lands

Practical, hands-on IT training delivered by working practitioners — not full-time trainers reading slides. Cybersecurity, Linux, networking, system hardening and corporate programs. HRDC-claimable for Malaysian employers.

Claim training fees through HRDC

Employers contributing to HRDC (under PSMB Act 2001) can claim training fees from their levy account. ZS Net Solution is a registered training provider — we help you scope the program, prepare the grant application and deliver an outcome your team can put to work.

How we deliver

Four things every ZS training program does differently.

Hands-on labs

At least 50% of every session is keyboard-on-keyboard. We use CTF-style labs, live environments and real tooling — not screenshots of someone else's terminal.

Practitioners, not pure trainers

Our trainers run pentests, build infrastructure and ship code in the same week they teach. Your team learns from someone who is still doing the work.

Outcome-focused

We agree the outcome up-front — "your SOC analysts can triage a phishing report end-to-end", not "your team attended a course". Then we design backwards from there.

Training FAQ

How does HRDC claiming work?
If your company contributes the HRDC (HRD Corp) levy, you can apply to claim training fees from your levy balance. As a registered training provider, we provide the documentation needed for your grant application — typically the trainer profile, course outline, schedule and quotation. Approval is at HRDC's discretion. We'll walk you through the steps.
Can you train at our office?
Yes. We deliver in-house training at your office anywhere in Malaysia. We also use our partner venues in the Klang Valley, and deliver online when the content suits it.
What's the minimum group size?
In-house programs typically run with 6 to 20 participants per cohort. Smaller groups are possible for advanced or executive-level content. Public-schedule courses have their own minimums.
Do participants get certificates?
Yes. Every participant who completes a course receives a certificate of completion from ZS Net Solution, including hours, scope and trainer attribution. Where the course aligns to a vendor certification (CCNA, CompTIA, etc.) we'll tell you up front what it does and does not prepare them for.
Can you build a curriculum from scratch?
Yes. Custom corporate programs are a significant share of our work. Tell us the outcome you need, the team's starting level and the time available — we'll design the curriculum, build the labs and deliver.
What languages do you train in?
Primary delivery is in English. We can deliver mixed Bahasa Malaysia + English where the audience benefits — especially for end-user awareness or productivity training. Tell us up-front and we'll adjust the material and pacing.
