Nationwide Initiative to Empower Singaporeans to Reach Their Full Potential Throughout Life
What is a Skills Development Partner?
Four organizations were designated as Skills Development Partners by SkillsFuture Singapore (SSG) to identify the skills that workers in their sectors require and to help SSG determine which training programs to provide.
This initiative is a key part of SSG’s efforts to promote lifelong learning, particularly by connecting the needs of individual workers with the evolving demands of businesses and jobs. These organizations will gain the expertise needed to generate insights into the skills their sectors require. The partners will also help companies better recognize the skills and mastery achieved by their employees.
