Gavin O’Meara, CEO of FE News and FE Careers, chats with Tan Kok Yam, Chief Executive of SkillsFuture Singapore, about Singapore’s Lifelong Learning System.

In this interview, we got to ask three big questions:

  • How has Singapore’s Lifelong learning ecosystem evolved over the years?
  • What are the plans for the Future of lifelong learning? 
  • What are SkillsFuture Credits?

The Lifelong Learning System Evolution Throughout the years

A major turning point for Singapore’s Lifelong Learning system was in 2015. This is when the SkillsFuture movement began.

This national movement allows people to choose their own learning journey. Learners invest in their own learning and take ownership of their future.

We discuss this and much more within this interview!
