by Pace Staff Singapore Pace Academy

If you are a fresh college graduate, you should certainly enrol yourself in one of the work-study programmes offered by reputed adult continuing education institutes in Singapore. These programmes aim at giving college freshers a breakthrough in the corporate world. They also allow them to study and work at the same time and build a bright career. Let’s check out some more reasons for you to join work-study programmes.

Adds weight to your profile

If you enrol yourself in work-study programmes and complete the course successfully, you will be awarded a certificate. Now this certification will be of much value when you showcase it on your resume. It will attract talent acquisitors and recruiters who will have a strong reason to offer you an internship or a full-time job. Even in the long run, the certification will help you to switch jobs.

 

Certification relevant job opportunity

Work-study programmes help fresh college graduates to find a job that goes with their scope of education. For example, students coming from business management backgrounds are most likely to get a job with the administrative department of a company. Likewise, those who had literature as their primary subject might have a great chance to work in a library or teach in a primary school.

 

Flexibility at work

Perhaps the best part of the work-study programme is that students get to enjoy ample flexibility at work. Recruiters who hire candidates are aware that the recruits are studying parallel with their job. They would ensure that the working hours of these interns/employees do not clash with their classes. Even during the semesters, recruiters provide them with leaves so that they can prepare well and do well in the examinations.

Self-dependency

Work-study programmes give college freshers an opportunity to bear their education expenses on their own. The on-campus job/internship students gets, helps them to pay the course fees on their own. It also helps them to get books and other study materials that are not available for free.

Value-added takeaway

Now the takeaways from these work-study programmes are much more than the pay package the companies offer. It’s about the experience they get from the courses that helps them to have a great career ahead. The experience helps the college graduates to manage and lead teams in the future when they work for larger organisations.
