1. Training Overview
The MSPO Awareness Training was successfully conducted from 9 to 11 June 2026 as a three-day public training programme delivered online through the Zoom platform.
The programme was conducted by Mohd Faidullah Abu Bakar and attended by five participants representing different organisations involved in the oil palm sector.
The programme served as foundational competency training under the Malaysian Sustainable Palm Oil (MSPO) Certification Scheme. Based on the approved TP91 training profile, the course provides participants with an understanding of the MS 2530:2022 Standard (MSPO 2.0), its principles, certification framework, sustainability requirements and application. The programme also supports competency requirements for individuals involved as Technical Experts, SIA Internal Assessors, internal auditors, consultants and other MSPO-related personnel.
The three-day programme was structured progressively around:
Day 1 – MSPO Scheme, Governance & Standards
- objectives and scope of MSPO;
- MSPO certification categories;
- Scheme Owner and Accredited Certification Body roles;
- MSPO Certification Scheme requirements;
- certification, audit and decision rules;
- e-MSPO system;
- MS 2530:2022 structure;
- traceability; and
- relationship between MSPO and the Sustainable Development Goals.
Day 2 – Cross-Cutting Procedures & Key Topics
- MSPO SIA Procedure;
- SIA assessor eligibility and competency;
- HCV Assessment Procedure;
- GHG Calculator Procedure;
- applicable legal and compliance requirements;
- social and labour requirements;
- foreign and forced labour;
- biodiversity;

3. Training Delivery Methodology
The programme adopted an interactive, competency-based and application-oriented online training approach consistent with the approved TP91 course profile.
a) Interactive Online Lectures
Structured presentations were delivered through Zoom to explain the MSPO Certification Scheme, MS 2530:2022 requirements and their practical implications.
The trainer provided explanations and examples to assist participants in understanding not only what MSPO requires, but also how those requirements are translated into organisational implementation.
b) Guided Requirement Interpretation
Participants were guided through the interpretation of:
- Principles, Criteria and Indicators;
- policies;
- procedures and SOPs;
- management plans;
- operational records;
- legal obligations;
- monitoring requirements; and
- objective evidence.
This enabled participants to understand the relationship between documented systems and actual evidence of implementation.
c) Practical Exercises
Exercises were provided throughout the programme so participants could apply the requirements by following trainer guidance.
The exercises included activities involving:
- identification of applicable MSPO requirements;
- identification of appropriate evidence;
- document and record requirements;
- gap identification;
- assessment of hypothetical operational situations;
- interpretation of compliance obligations; and
- recommendation of suitable actions.
d) Case-Based Discussion
Practical scenarios were used to strengthen participants’ ability to apply MSPO requirements to realistic situations.
Topics included:
- sustainability implementation;
- legal compliance;
- labour requirements;
- worker welfare;
- occupational safety and health;
- environmental management;
- biodiversity;
- traceability;
- stakeholder matters;
- documentation; and
- internal evaluation.
e) MSPO Cross-Cutting Procedures
Participants were introduced to key MSPO procedures that interact with MS 2530:2022, including:
- Social Impact Assessment;
- HCV Assessment;
- GHG Calculator requirements;
- traceability; and
- relevant legal and compliance requirements.
This provided participants with a broader understanding of how MSPO certification extends beyond individual clauses of the standard.
f) Question-and-Answer Sessions
Participants were encouraged to raise questions and discuss practical issues throughout the programme.
The relatively small class size of five participants allowed for focused interaction between the trainer and participants.
g) Knowledge Assessment
Short activities, exercises and assessment were incorporated to reinforce competency, consistent with the TP91 delivery approach of lectures, guided discussions, case work and exercises.
A formal assessment was subsequently used to determine successful programme completion.

6. Trainer Observation
Throughout the three-day online programme, participants demonstrated positive engagement and willingness to participate in the learning activities.
The trainer observed that the small class size was beneficial for interaction, allowing participants to seek clarification on specific MSPO requirements and discuss their respective organisational situations.
Participants represented organisations directly associated with the oil palm sector, including smallholder/cooperative and sawit enterprise operations. This provided useful context for discussions on how MSPO requirements apply at operational level. The participant organisations are documented in the attendance records.
Participants showed particular interest in:
- interpretation of MSPO 2.0 requirements;
- certification expectations;
- evidence of compliance;
- traceability;
- policies and procedures;
- legal requirements;
- internal evaluation;
- SIA;
- HCV;
- environmental requirements; and
- practical implementation.
The exercises assisted participants in differentiating between merely having documentation and demonstrating effective implementation through appropriate records and objective evidence.
The trainer also observed that participant understanding strengthened as the programme progressed from MSPO governance and standards on Day 1, through cross-cutting technical requirements on Day 2, to practical implementation and competency application on Day 3.
The formal assessment outcome supports this observation, with all five participants achieving 98%.
7. Summary of Improvement Suggestions
Based on trainer observations and the indicative participant evaluation, the following opportunities for future enhancement were identified:
- Include additional practical examples involving smallholder and small-enterprise operations.
- Provide more sample MSPO records and completed documentation for participants to review.
- Include additional exercises on determining appropriate objective evidence for specific MSPO requirements.
- Provide more examples of common implementation gaps identified during MSPO audits.
- Expand practical exercises on internal audit and system review.
- Include additional examples involving traceability and e-MSPO requirements.
- Provide short knowledge quizzes after major learning topics.
- Continue allowing sufficient question-and-answer time, particularly for smaller online classes.
- Provide practical implementation checklists that participants can use following completion of the training.
These suggestions are intended as continual-improvement opportunities and do not indicate participant dissatisfaction.
No negative feedback was recorded.
8. Recommendations for Future Training
Recommendation 1 – Maintain Practical Exercises
Future programmes should continue incorporating exercises that require participants to interpret and apply MSPO requirements rather than focusing solely on presentation-based learning.
Recommendation 2 – Expand Smallholder and Enterprise Examples
Considering the participant profile of this programme, additional examples relevant to smallholder groups, cooperatives and small oil palm enterprises would further strengthen practical relevance.
Recommendation 3 – Strengthen Evidence-Based Learning
Participants should continue to practise identifying:
- required documents;
- required records;
- acceptable objective evidence;
- implementation gaps; and
- suitable corrective or improvement actions.
Recommendation 4 – Provide Practical MSPO Templates
Future participants may benefit from sample:
- policies;
- procedures;
- management plans;
- legal registers;
- monitoring records;
- internal audit records;
- traceability records; and
- corrective-action records.
Recommendation 5 – Maintain Coverage of Cross-Cutting Procedures
SIA, HCV, GHG, legal compliance, labour, biodiversity, OSH and environmental requirements should continue to be incorporated because these topics help participants understand MSPO as an integrated sustainability framework.
Recommendation 6 – Maintain Interactive Online Delivery
For small online classes, direct questioning, discussion and guided case exercises should continue to be used to maximise participant engagement.
Recommendation 7 – Encourage Further Competency Development
Participants intending to perform specialised MSPO functions should continue with the appropriate competency pathway applicable to their intended role.
Completion of the Awareness Course satisfies the awareness-training component for relevant appointments, while recognition of competency remains subject to the full criteria prescribed by the applicable MSPO Scheme Owner requirements.
