Question
To asked the Minister for Education (a) what is the take-up rate of AI-related skills training courses supported by SkillsFuture; and (b) whether the Ministry has targets on the number of workers, especially among professionals, managers and executives, who should go for such upskilling.
Response
- There are around 1,600 artificial intelligence (AI) -related courses supported by SkillsFuture Singapore (SSG), with 137,000 training places taken up by more than 105,000 individuals last year.
- AI has been advancing rapidly and has the potential to transform the way we work across industries and jobs. While we do not set targets specifically on the number of workers who go for AI training, we encourage all Singaporeans to pursue upskilling and lifelong learning to stay relevant, including by keeping abreast of AI and other developments. The Government will continue to support Singaporeans in their upskilling journey, through substantial course fee subsidies as well as the SkillsFuture Credit to offset out-of-pocket costs.
