2018 Competition
After more than 9 months of preparations, hard work from our local territory partners who are involved in the ICDL Asia Digital Challenge 2018, we are glad to announce and celebrate the finale of the Grand Final Competiton which took place in Bangkok, Thailand on 5 September 2018.
This year, we have 7361 students from 300 different schools and institutes who participated in the Digital Challenge competition. Out of this, about 400 students qualified for a place to compete in the National round competition within their own territories. A final 32 students made it to the Grand Final competition in Bangkok to fight for the honour to be crowned as the best ICT student in Asia for 2018. Congratulations to all our top representatives from 10 different territories: Bhutan, China, India, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, South Korea, Sri Lanka, Thailand, Vietnam.
The Awards Ceremony was held on the next day in conjunction with ICDL Digital Literacy Day 2018 at the C-Asean, Bangkok. Mr Damien O’Sullivan, CEO of ICDL Foundation and Ms. Tina Wu, General Manager of ICDL Asia presented the awards to the winners of this year’s participants.
The competition was closely contested. After a long deliberation between the Management of ICDL Asia and the appointed Results Verfication Committee, it was decided that there will be more awards issued for this year’s ICDL Asia Digital Challenge 2018, to reward the students for their hard work.
