SkillsFuture Credit Top-Up to Help Mid-Career Workers In 2020

It is difficult to switch jobs at a certain age, but the Singapore government has made it possible with SkillsFuture credit. A $1000 is getting added to professional accounts that are in their 40s and 50s. They can take the help of this credit to attain greater heights in their career and fetch new roles.

SkillsFuture already had a $500 for Singapore citizens who are 25 and above, but there is an additional $500 more to get added to the account of citizens who are between 40 to 60 years.

This noble initiative is to make professionals in their 40s be more work-fit. The primary credit has no expiry date and can be used at any point of time.

Some people, after completing tertiary education, have moved to a sector and have served the companies for long. Some of them have adapted the new changes and technologies involved. Many still lack proper skillsets to match the productivity results of newcomers. The percentage of people who need proper grooming is larger in number.  They can now breathe easy with the introduction of credit top-up in all the professional training institutes in Singapore.

The training will be industry-focused and will give chances to the mid-career workers to shift to a completely new domain. The mentors will prepare the courses as per the industry standard, and training will make the adult learners equip new tools and strategies that they need to produce the desired work results.

The Government has also encouraged employers to hire mid-career workers. In addition, the Government will provide a 20 percent salary support to employers who absorb local jobseekers aged 40 and above. WSQ courses mingle with SkillsFuture to give professionals industry-centric knowledge. More and more organizations are tying up with the training institutes to help learners with the right skills. They boost the students’ confidence by giving them job vacancy news and often hiring them for their own organisations.
