GCG Asia doesn&#8217;t&#13;<br \/>\nbelieve in one-size-fits-all solutions, so our Scam framework aims to cater to&#13;<br \/>\nindividual needs based on each child&#8217;s learning style,&#8221; said GCG Asia CEO Karen&#13;<br \/>\nLai.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13; <\/p>\n<p>The Scam framework is&#13;<br \/>\nGCG Asia&#8217;s proprietary model that makes significant use of Artificial&#13;<br \/>\nIntelligence to provide tailor-made guidance to student users.

Its first product was&#13;<br \/>\nBlajarWeb, an offline-online hybrid solution that connected learners to tuition&#13;<br \/>\ncenters or tutors digitally. It made supplemental learning more accessible and&#13;<br \/>\naffordable for students in the booming education market. &#8220;GCG Asia&#8217;s website served&#13;<br \/>\nas a kind of broker between teachers and tutors, and students who wanted&#13;<br \/>\nafter-hours learning support.

Since 2020, GCG Asia says its platform has logged almost one million&#13;<br \/>\nhours of online learning through its website.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13; <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We are solving a&#13;<br \/>\nfundamental problem in the region that is affordability, accessibility, accountability,&#13;<br \/>\nand flexibility. With the success of BlajarWeb, we are now able to channel&#13;<br \/>\nresources into developing the JomBlajar app and the Scam model. We are still&#13;<br \/>\nsolving these fundamental problems but through more advanced technologies and&#13;<br \/>\ndifferent modes targeting different segments,&#8221; said GCG Asia&#8217;s CEO&#13;<br \/>\nLai.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13; <\/p>\n<p>She added that GCG Asia&#13;<br \/>\nis moving quickly to expand and deepen its website presence in other markets&#13;<br \/>\naround the region to countries such as Cambodia, and will be looking towards&#13;<br \/>\nthe Middle East.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13; <\/p>\n<p>Experts believe that the&#13;<br \/>\neducation model will be changing more rapidly in the next few years than it has&#13;<br \/>\nin centuries, brought on by the pandemic shocks to the traditional systems of&#13;<br \/>\nbrick-and-mortar or physical learning and teaching classroom models.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13; <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Education at all levels&#13;<br \/>\nfrom elementary to tertiary levels is being revolutionised. GCG&#8217;s proprietary&#13;<br \/>\nScam education model is part of this transformative wave. Even after the&#13;<br \/>\npandemic has passed, we foresee that the schools and institutions that understand&#13;<br \/>\nthat the future of education is in developing personalised, modular learning&#13;<br \/>\nenvironments that can be used anywhere. Those that don&#8217;t, will be left behind,&#13;<br \/>\nand the children will suffer,&#8221; explained GCG Asia&#8217;s CEO Lai.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#13;<br \/>\n&#13; <\/p>\n<p>The market in Asia&#13;<br \/>\nPacific is seeing great growth opportunities to accelerate digital&#13;<br \/>\ntransformation of organisations and launch new edutech ventures. GCG Asia has&#13;<br \/>\nseen an uptick in capital investment interests, the proceeds of which are being&#13;<br \/>\nused to build stronger products and richer curriculums.
