NUS Lifelong Learning (L3) - SkillsFuture Career Transition Programme (SCTP)
SkillsFuture Career Transition Programmes (SCTPs) is a national workforce initiative by SkillsFuture Singapore (SSG) for organisations to potentially recruit mid-career individuals with newly-acquired industry-relevant skill sets that are aligned to their firms' business needs. It is a Train-and-Place programme where the SCTP trainees will attend training courses and other immersive learning activities, in addition to NUS' career advisory services and employment facilitation.
To support the SCTPs under a Train-and-Place mode, participating Employer Partners (EPs) can tap on additional sources of manpower and meet their manpower needs by providing mid-career switchers with an opportunity to work in your enterprise.
Indicating you are an EP for the NUS SCTPs.
To date, NUS is delighted to collaborate with more than 35 EPs across diverse sectors to transform their workforce.

It has been challenging finding someone with the right data analytics skillset to meet the company’s needs. NUS’ SCTP has helped us in our hiring process as it provides potential candidates who have/possess the required technical expertise on top of the experience from their previous job roles.
It has been a smooth process working with NUS as an SCTP Employer Partner. The team was responsive and supportive throughout the hiring process. They were also forthcoming and proactive in providing recommendations and scheduling interviews.
Our chosen candidate brought valuable insights from his previous work experience, is independent, and has been a great addition to the organisation.

The (SCTP) NUS Digital Transformation Programme has taught me how to harness digital technologies to streamline business processes to deliver value to the organisation and customers, as well as achieve our business goals. It has also broadened my perspective on the impact of technology on society and the environment.
The programme also equipped me with the confidence, knowledge and skills to advance my career in the digital insurance space. I learnt new tools and frameworks that I now use frequently to improve cost efficiency and customer experience.
I am grateful to the instructors for their patience in imparting their knowledge and experience, which greatly enhanced my learning experience.
NUS SCTP in Data Analytics is a cut above all the programmes I’ve attended – fantastic team of lecturers and mentors who put in the extra mile to ensure we understood the fundamentals!
