Grab Indonesia GrabAcademy skill development initiative

Grab Indonesia has launched GrabAcademy, a skill development platform intended to enhance the capabilities of driver-partners and merchants within its ecosystem. The initiative is part of a broader IDR 100 billion commitment to support the MSME ecosystem and provide professional growth opportunities.

The program offers various development pathways, such as transitioning from GrabBike to GrabCar, training for merchant roles, and preparing drivers to become content creators or instructors. For merchants, the academy provides digital skills training covering store management, financial literacy, and social media use.

A significant component of the initiative includes educational support through a scholarship collaboration with Universitas Terbuka (UT). This partnership provides flexible, technology-based learning, allowing partners and their children to pursue higher education while maintaining their current employment. As of 2025, the platform has been accessed by over 1.15 million driver-partners, with more than 204,000 completing mandatory modules.
