Various career-related initiatives besides SkillsFuture Credit

We thank Mr Yoshi Poon for his suggestions for the use of SkillsFuture Credit (Reserve part of SkillsFuture Credit for career-related courses; May 8, online).

Besides SkillsFuture Credit, the SkillsFuture movement has a wide range of initiatives to enable individuals to stay relevant throughout their careers by broadening and/or deepening their skills.

Young Singaporean polytechnic and Institute of Technical Education graduates can get a head start in their careers and, concurrently, deepen their skills through the work-learn programme SkillsFuture Earn and Learn.

Singaporeans in the early stages of their careers can tap the SkillsFuture Study Awards, which help enhance employability by supporting the development of specialist skills, especially in growth sectors.

The SkillsFuture Mid-Career Enhanced Subsidy is available to Singaporeans aged 40 and above. It enables them to remain responsive and relevant to a changing workplace through upskilling and reskilling.

The recently launched SkillsFuture Fellowships serve to recognise inspiring Singaporeans who are masters in their respective fields and are dedicated to achieving and helping others achieve skills mastery.

More information on the various initiatives can be found on SkillsFuture.sg. Individuals can also contact SkillsFuture Singapore via our feedback portal https://portal.ssg-wsg.gov.sg or at 6785-5785.
