Abstract

The delivery of information in government services is essential to meet the needs of stakeholders. Lifelong learning is a government initiative to empower communities through short courses to gain more knowledge, skill and to generate income. To ensure the community is able to take advantage of this opportunity, Kolej Komuniti Semporna has developed an innovation which is a website known as OSC PSH@KKSEM. This website will become the main platform to deliver information related to short courses offered by Kolej Komuniti Semporna. About 10% of total short course participants in 2023 was selected as the population for this research and upon distributing questionnaires there are 83 respondents that have given feedback. The findings show that 63.9% of them strongly agreed that the developed website can facilitate the delivery of information and 69.9% strongly agreed to recommend this website to family members and friends. Through this innovation, the delivery of information is more effective, accurate and accessible at anytime and anywhere as our institution is diligently working towards the government's aim to establish a digital literate community. In the future, the features of the website will be updated to create an online learning platform to empower the digital literate community in order to create an inclusive, fair society and also to narrow the educational gap in the community.
