Students learn to give used computers new lease of life in programme offered at ITE

SINGAPORE – Used computers will get a new lease of life after being refurbished by students at the Institute of Technical Education (ITE) who would be equipped with the skills for this purpose in a training partnership with industry collaborators.

The 40-hour certificate programme, which will be conducted in a new lab at ITE College East in collaboration with electronics manufacturer Lenovo and chipmaker Advanced Micro Devices (AMD), was announced on Tuesday at the Singapore Week of Innovation and Technology (Switch) tech conference at Marina Bay Sands.

Staff and students from the Higher Nitec in electronics engineering course across all three ITE colleges will be trained to repair and refurbish old devices at the lab as part of the course.

So far, 60 ITE staff members and students in total have been trained under the refurbishment programme, said an ITE spokesman. The course will be extended to all students as a separate elective by April 2024.

The course also aims to train 720 ITE students and more than 1,000 members of the public under a separate SkillsFuture programme over three years, to help them find jobs in the sustainability field. It will also bolster the electronics manufacturer’s refurbishment capabilities.

Students will be trained to assess the condition of used gadgets, erase data, and decide which devices are fit for refurbishment and which should be scrapped for parts for use elsewhere, Lenovo country general manager Nigel Lee told The Straits Times.

 
 

With the help of digital simulators, students will learn how to judge which parts should be removed and what components can be added to a used device to help it run smoothly, he added.

 

The programme with ITE aims to train a workforce that is adept at refurbishing, which Mr Lee believes will be crucial to sustainability efforts in the manufacturing sector.

Refurbishment helps to extend the lifespan of devices, resulting in less electronic waste.

ITE chief executive Low Khah Gek said: “This partnership between ITE, Lenovo and AMD is forward-thinking, with clarity of purpose on sustainability, decarbonisation and technological innovation.”

 

Students in the programme will also be trained to maintain devices and troubleshoot common issues and will be recognised as Lenovo-certified technicians.

Devices for refurbishment typically come from customer trade-ins or corporate clients who use Lenovo devices on a subscription basis, said Mr Lee. “These customers normally use the laptops for up to five years,” he added, “but if you refurbish it, the devices can last three more years or longer, depending on the software.”

Lenovo did not state how many devices it planned to refurbish under the partnership, but said the effort will contribute to its goal to increase the adoption of used devices and to refurbish a third of all its devices collected by the end of 2024.

More than 50 businesses here have signed up for the brand’s Asset Recovery Services, which include refurbishment and disposal.

The refurbished devices can in turn be used to support charities and events, or sold at a lower price to customers who do not necessarily need the latest top-end devices, said Mr Lee. Lenovo will work with upcycling service providers Rentalworks and TES to lease refurbished devices to customers at lower rates.

Lenovo is one of many tech manufacturers, including Apple and HP, that offer refurbishment programmes to extend the lifespan of their devices and reduce their carbon footprint.

Beyond sustainability efforts, there has also been a push here to supply low-income families with refurbished devices.

Non-profit groups such as Engineering Good have handed out more than 3,800 refurbished computers to needy students for home-based learning since 2020.

More than 350 exhibitors from around the world have set up booths at the Switch trade show, which is taking place from Tuesday to Thursday and is expected to draw at least 15,000 industry players and other visitors.

slide-02.png
Reduce Pollution & Raise Environmental Awareness

Rentalworks And Lenovo Hadirkan Manajemen Aset IT End-To-End Yang Ramah Lingkungan Untuk KALLA

MAKASSAR – Bekerjasama dengan Lenovo, Rentalworks Indonesia hadirkan program Device-as-a-Service (DaaS) yang inovatif untuk PT. Hadji Kalla (KALLA). Melalui program ini, KALLA menunjukan komitmennya untuk mendorong ekonomi sirkular serta praktik IT yang berkelanjutan dan ramah lingkungan di Indonesia, selain dari menerima keuntungan operasional dan finansial dari DaaS.

Dengan Device-as-a-Service, Rentalworks dan Lenovo akan bertanggung jawab dalam pengadaan, pengelolaan dan pembaruan perangkat IT untuk KALLA. Untuk mendorong ekonomi sirkular, perangkat-perangkat tersebut akan diperbarui oleh Rentalworks di akhir masa sewa untuk digunakan kembali, atau didaur ulang sesuai dengan kebijakan yang berlaku untuk mengurangi limbah elektronik.

Di era digital yang berkembang pesat ini, KALLA berkomitmen untuk menjaga keberlangsungan bisnis maupun lingkungan disekitarnya. Menyadari tingginya jumlah limbah elektronik di Indonesia, KALLA melihat kerjasama ini sebagai langkah strategis untuk mengurangi jumlah limbah elektronik dan mencegah dampak negatif lebih lanjut terhadap lingkungan. “KALLA sangat antusias dalam menyambut transformasi digital, disisi lain perusahaan juga senantiasa aware terhadap keberlangsungan lingkungan hidup kedepannya, sehingga setiap aktifitas kerja hingga program yang dilakukan kami berupaya sebisa mungkin untuk menghadirkan inovasi alternatif yang dapat mengurangi zat buangan yang berbagai jenis, salah satunya limbah elektronik” ungkap Disa Rizky Novianty selaku People Performance Director KALLA.

Melalui program DaaS ini, KALLA tidak perlu membeli perangkat IT namun dapat menyewanya dari Rentalworks dan Lenovo, disertai dengan berbagai layanan pendukung. Semua hal ini tidak hanya memastikan kelancaran & efisiensi secara operasional, namun juga mendukung komitmen KALLA untuk mengurangi limbah elektronik dan mendorong keberlanjutan lingkungan.

Terkait kerjasama ini, Primawan Badri selaku Country Director dari Rentalworks Indonesia mengatakan “Kami sangat senang dapat bekerja sama dengan Lenovo dalam menghadirkan konsep Device-as-a-Service yang inovatif untuk KALLA. Selain dari manfaat secara operasional dan finansial, Device-as-a-Service juga memberikan manfaat yang signifikan terhadap lingkungan dengan mendukung ekonomi sirkular dan pengurangan limbah elektronik. Dengan keahlian kami dalam solusi sewa jangka panjang dan teknologi terdepan dari Lenovo, kami berharap dapat memberikan kontribusi positif yang signifikan bagi KALLA dan masyarakat luas.”

Budi Janto, selaku General Manager Lenovo Indonesia juga mengungkapkan rasa bangganya karena dapat mendukung KALLA dalam transformasi digital untuk mendukung ekonomi sirkular dan mengurangi limbah elektronik.

“Di Lenovo, kami memiliki dedikasi dalam memberikan solusi berkelanjutan untuk membantu pelanggan kami dalam mencapai tujuan pengelolaan lingkungannya dengan lebih cepat. Mulai dari teknologi berkelanjutan hingga efisiensi energi dan aksi pengendalian iklim yang lebih cerdas, kami berupaya memberikan dampak positif bagi planet ini.” 

Kerjasama ini merupakan bagian dari komitmen Rentalworks dan Lenovo Indonesia untuk mendukung keberlanjutan bisnis dan lingkungan. Rentalworks dan Lenovo Indonesia berharap bahwa praktik Device-as-a-Service yang didopsi oleh KALLA akan menginspirasi berbagai pihak lainnya untuk mengadopsi praktik yang serupa dan berkontribusi secara kolektif dalam pengurangan limbah elektronik secara global.
