Students who register under ACE will be challenged by the e-curriculum programme and learn how their passion for esports and gaming can apply in real-world examples. A demonstration of the e-curriculum programme shown at the launch includes topics like esports tournament concepts and event management, esports business, and streaming. Students will receive an e-certificate after completing five levels of the e-curriculum programme.
They can also access the job portal to find internships and full-time roles at companies related to esports and gaming. The job portal is exclusively for students who register for ACE also has a growing list of companies playing a part in the growth of digital, gaming, and esports industries.

This partnership is in line with our ongoing efforts and whether you are a professional or amateur gamer, an avid esports spectator or an all-round esports enthusiast, we want to be able to enable you to indulge in your passion to realise your unlimited potential.
Jason Ko, Chief Executive Officer of MYC! further added, In the digital world, social media platforms and digital games are increasingly mainstay. In Malaysia, we develop careers where there are financial supply and demand. Through partnering with ACE, we want to deliver the message that there is more to playing games, that a sustainable career can be achieved in this industry.
ACE Varsity is the 1st step to developing a complete ecosystem built together by gamers and industry players.
