The Leading Learning Service Provider in Developing Innovation Talent for the Next Era
Human capital is a business’s most important asset and the force that drives company growth. A survey of global CEOs by the Conference Board indicated that Asian CEOs were the most likely to name talent as a top challenge. With this in mind, ITRI has designed quality learning programs based on professional competency requirements to meet the needs of different industries for high-quality innovative talent. Among all education and training institutes, ITRI stands out from other institutes due to the features below.
As a world-class research institution, ITRI is able to bring in such global knowledge resources that its instructors are not those whom you would normally find teaching in other educational institutes. ITRI has integrated the tangible and intangible resources it has amassed over the years into our training program series designed to enhance the innovation capabilities of industrial personnel.

The Five Innovation Competencies program can satisfy the different requirements of businesses at various stages of the technology or product development process—from idea inception, market and customer analysis, R&D know-how acquisition, and applying intellectual property rights to commercialization and developing new ventures.
The Six Technology Domains
ITRI’s technology R&D can be summed up using the following six major technology domains—information and communications; materials, chemical, and nanotechnology; electronics and optoelectronics; medical devices and biomedical technology; mechanical and systems technology; and green energy and environmental technology. ITRI has carried out in-depth investigations into the development of cutting-edge technologies and into the application of innovations in each domain. It has also integrated the technologies of different domains. ITRI has organized its vast wealth of specialized knowledge in various technology domains into education and training materials.
