Do you know about Skillsfuture?

Skillsfuture courses


Free courses from Skillsfuture credit was much talked during the budget in 2015. However, I was surprised to learn that quite a few of my friends are not aware of this amazing benefit. More recently, as my friend's parents were pleasantly surprised to hear from me about this initiative, I decided to spread the word here.

What is skillsfuture? In one sentence, it is a government initiative to encourage singaporeans to continually upgrade their skills to stay relevant.

How to be eligible? If you are a Singapore citizen aged 25 years old and above, you automatically qualify for $500 credits! (in other words, $500 to spend on courses!)

What are the eligible courses? 
It is an impressive and comprehensive list, which you can find here

There are more than 10000 courses to select from. Whether you are finding a new hobby, learning a new skill or enhancing yourself to be better equipped at work, chances are you will be able to find something here.
Some ideas are taking a new language, increasing your musical element, learning how to cook certain cuisines, being a tour guide, etc.

For those of you who have no idea yet, hope this is a great way to start the new year! This is not limited to the young, remember to inform your parents as they are eligible too so long as they are singaporeans.
