Your Enterprise Journey

We are committed to supporting your business growth through skills transformation and workforce development. Whether you are looking to upskill your employees, develop new talent, or transform your business capabilities, our support adapts to your enterprise needs.

Through a range of initiatives and funding support, we help you build a future-ready workforce and create a strong learning culture in your workplace. Our enterprise-focused initiatives are designed to help businesses develop capabilities for sustainable growth and competitiveness.

Empower Your Workforce through Learning

Every step in enhancing your employees' skills creates new opportunities for business growth. Through the SkillsFuture Enterprise Credit, you can offset up to 90% of out-of-pocket costs for your skills training needs.

We understand that training can affect business planning and increase training costs. Our Workplace Skills Recognition programme enables formal certification of your employees' workplace-developed skills. With support from NACE centres, enterprises can work towards achieving the Workplace Learning:Ready (WPL:READY) Mark. For structured workplace learning, the National Centre of Excellence for Workplace Learning (NACE) helps you build effective learning systems and develop a strong coaching culture in your organisation.

As you strengthen your workplace learning capabilities, we are here to support your next steps in developing a skilled and future-ready workforce.

Develop Your Talent Pipeline

Whether you are looking to hire fresh graduates or mid-career professionals, our initiatives help you build and retain a strong talent pipeline. Our SkillsFuture Work-Study Programmes enable you to train and retain suitable talent through structured workplace training, developing skilled employees who understand your business and meet your workforce needs. Through our Job Redesign Initiatives, we help you transform job roles to enhance productivity and create meaningful career progression opportunities.

Broaden your talent pool with Workforce Singapore's Career Conversion Programmes by reskilling mid-career new hires or existing employees to take on new job roles in your organisation.

As you develop your workforce capabilities and strengthen your talent pipeline, we are here to support your enterprise journey.
