SkillsFuture Work-Study Programmes

The SkillsFuture Work-Study Programmes (WSPs) are offered by the Institutes of Higher Learning (IHLs) and SkillFuture's appointed private training providers to provide fresh graduates from the polytechnics, Institute of Technical Education (ITE), and mid-career individuals, a head-start in careers related to their discipline of study through work-study arrangements within organisations.

You can participate in the WSPs as a host employer by opening your workplace and offering structured training to the WSP trainees. By doing so, you will have the opportunity to groom and retain suitable talent with the relevant skills and aptitude to meet the needs of your organisation.

The WSP trainees will receive guidance from mentors from the IHLs and the training providers to support their continued learning and contribution towards your business growth.

• Develop a pipeline of talent to support your business growth
• Cultivate relationships with the IHLs and training partners as your business partners for skills advisory and provide valuable industry feedback to them to enhance relevance and effectiveness of the WSPs

• Receive a grant of up to $15,000 per trainee placed in the programme to defray the costs of developing and providing structured on-job-training (Terms and Conditions apply)
