Awards and Recognitions

The Employees Retraining Board (ERB) launched the “ERB Manpower Developer Award Scheme” (the Scheme) to recognise organisations which demonstrate outstanding achievements in manpower training and development as Manpower Developers (MDs). As part of the Scheme, the effectiveness of the strategies and practices in manpower training and development of participating organisation will be reviewed and evaluated in accordance with a set of objectives and assessment criteria established by the independent Technical Consultant. Urban Renewal Authority (URA) fulfilled the criteria and acknowledged as MDs from 2018 to 2025.

Since the outbreak of COVID-19, URA has been implementing various innovative measures to manage the risk of spreading COVID-19 virus and to ensure business continuity. The purposes of our Project are to safeguard the health and safety of our staff members and ensure the continued progress of urban renewal during COVID-19 pandemic.

In driving the “Smart Urban Renewal” work, the Urban Renewal Authority (URA) decided to build a Geographic Information System (GIS) based system, named “Urban Renewal Information System” (URIS) and embarked on the journey to become a data-driven organisation with an IT-savvy workforce.  A dedicated training plan with a series of customised in-house training programmes was implemented to support the development of URIS, sharpen our staff’s mindset for change and groom them to become Location Intelligence talents.

Nurturing our staff is one of the missions of the Urban Renewal Authority (URA). We developed our own all-in-one enterprise learning management and knowledge exchange platform to safeguard URA’s critical knowledge and unique project experience, enrich staff’s learning experience and automate the training administration for better operational efficiency.  The Learning Platform was launched during the COVID-pandemic period, offering a flexible and effective learning experience for all staff regardless of their work locations.
