Singapore has launched its Training and Adult Education Industry Transformation Map, which seeks to provide workforce development and enterprise transformation to employers across industries.
“The (2025 map) seeks to raise the industry relevance and market responsiveness of adult training in Singapore, so as to improve individual worker’s employability and support enterprise transformation across industries,” Minister of State for education and manpower Gan Siow Huang said. “We will do this by deepening partnerships with enterprises and sectors, and through leveraging technology and innovation.”
With support from Skills Future Singapore, the sector aims to deepen partnerships with industries, and introduce new collaborative models between training providers and enterprises.
The Institute of Adult Learning is also set to intensify its research and research translation to innovate the delivery of adult education. The Workforce Skills Qualification Advanced Certificate in Learning and Performance has been revamped for teaching adult education skills.
“The Training and Adult Education sector plays a major role in raising the employability of Singaporeans and the capabilities of enterprises. Skills Future Singapore will do its part to realise the strategies and help our training partners succeed,” its CEO Tan Kok Yam said.
