future as a successful citizen in society. The United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals in quality education
focus on increasing the number of youth having relevant knowledge and skills, including technical and vocational
skills for self-employment or employment. Youth problems are commonly encountered for those who are poor,
needy and unemployed. Hence, this paper aims to provide a conceptual humanising education business model
including an eLearning, mentoring system and eMarketplace to help these youths in Gombak District, Selangor.
Through humanising education development business model, this programme will enhance knowledge, skills and
values. It also creates job and entrepreneurship, a platform to generate income and wellbeing of youth community.
The findings show that this programme has potential to improve the quality education, strengthen the economy
and improving social status of youth with Islamic values. To achieve the objectives of this study, the business
modelling tools like the Business Model Canvas and Value Proposition Canvas are used. Business model canvas is

propositions and revenue streams. Then, value proposition canvas is required to ensure that the programme is positioned around what the customer’s values and needs, pains, gains and job-to-do. This paper adapted design thinking approach that draws an iterative process in which to understand the user’s pain, challenge assumptions,redefine problems and formulate strategies and conceptual business model. |
