HRD Corp (the Human Resource Development Corporation of Malaysia) lets levy-registered employers claim back eligible training costs from the levy they already pay. Our Strategy Led AI programmes are structured as HRD Corp claimable Public Focus Area AI courses.
Two claim paths run in parallel, and it's worth understanding both because they work differently:
- The Course Fee — what your organisation pays WooWoo World directly, capped by HRD Corp per participant per day.
- Trainee Travel & Logistics — what your organisation separately claims for your own staff's meals, transport and hotel, based on how far they travel to our venue.
The Course Fee — what we charge, and its cap
HRD Corp caps how much of a training fee it will treat as claimable, per participant, per day. Anything we charge above that daily cap simply isn't claimable — your organisation would pay the excess without a grant offset. All WooWoo World pricing is set to stay comfortably within these caps.
| Workshop duration | Max face-to-face fee (per pax/day) | Max Remote Online (ROT) fee (per pax/day) | Max seats claimable per company |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1-Day AI Workshop | RM3,000 | RM2,000 | 9 |
| 2-Day AI Workshop | RM3,000 | RM2,000 | |
| 5-Day AI Workshop | RM3,000 | RM2,000 |
Trainee Travel & Logistics — what your organisation claims separately
Distinct from the course fee, your organisation can separately claim your own staff's meal, transport and accommodation costs, based on how far they're travelling to reach our Kuala Lumpur / Bukit Kiara venues.
| Claim item | Rule | Max claim | Conditions |
|---|---|---|---|
| Meal Allowance | Local / outstation | RM100 / pax / day | Only if meals aren't provided by us. Minimum 4 hours training that day. |
| Daily Trainee Allowance | Under 100km from your office | RM250 / pax / day | Local transit / pocket allowance for KL and Bukit Kiara-based attendees. |
| Daily Trainee Allowance | Over 100km (outstation) | RM500 / pax / day | Includes room + allowance for staff travelling in to KL/Bukit Kiara. |
| Hotel Rental Package | Booking at the venue hotel | As per official invoice | Claimable if bundled directly into the approved event package. |
| Consumable Materials | Course-specific | RM100 / group total | Flat cap without itemisation; higher claims need receipts. |
| Public Transport / Flight | Outstation to KL | Actual cost on receipt | Public transport only (flights, trains) — personal mileage isn't eligible. |
The Inter-District Rule
If you book us at a premium venue in Bukit Kiara or central KL, staff whose own office is already within the Klang Valley (under 100km away) can't claim the outstation RM500/day rate — they'd claim the RM250/day local allowance instead, or itemise specific receipts.
The "Either/Or" Clause
HRD Corp allows a claim for either the flat daily trainee allowance or an itemised meal allowance on the same training day, not both — this prevents double-dipping on food costs.
The general process
- Your organisation books seats on a WooWoo World Strategy Led AI programme.
- We provide the documentation your HR/training team needs to support a claim (invoice, programme outline, attendance confirmation).
- Your organisation submits the claim to HRD Corp through their e-TRiS system, within HRD Corp's stipulated claim window.
- HRD Corp assesses the claim against your levy balance and the applicable caps, and reimburses your organisation directly.
Where to go for definitive answers
Eligibility, exact reimbursement amounts, and claim deadlines depend on your organisation's specific circumstances. Your HR or training department, or HRD Corp directly, are the authoritative sources — we can only speak to how our programmes are structured to support a claim.
