WDA Social Media Marketing Course sponsored fully by Skills Future Credit>
 

Hi All,

I got retrenched a week and ago.

Compared to a lot of retrenched folks I am a little luckier as I have started a side business 2 months ago using the new social media marketing skills that I acquired, I am able to generate an income during this period of need to tie me over.

I would like to share this course that I benefited from. The next workshop is to be held on Dec 3, 10 and 17 . This course can be fully funded by the Skills Future Credit of $500 so no cash outlay is required by the participants.

There are only 40 limited seats for this course.

Super Like for other options posted here!

All the Best!

There are lot of skillful courses are available online, persons can choose from them according to their need and desire.

Perhaps the Real Estate Salesperson course?
I personally used my skillsfuture credits for this course.

With bulk of the costs subsidised, I gained a lot of new insights about the property market. Not a bad thing to have a license on hand as well!

Accounting and any business admin courses.

mostly useless unless is from accredited agency like PMP, CCNA etc.

I have a long list of skillsfutures courses certs but none of the HR interview even care

Omg dude then I don't want to do skillsfuture. you are right most of them are not accredited and even if they are it is not going to boost your employability chance. skillsfuture main goal is to hope for hopeless people who dont have req and education certs. but if you are beyond that... then dont bother skillsfuture.

WSQ courses
 

I am planning to enrol into WSQ course but do not have relevant work experience. Their flowchart of getting a specialised diploma in relevant skill you want to learn is extremely good and prospects could increased if one acquires one. However, I think I don't qualify because im a fresh grad with no relevant exp and they only candidates who possess the relevant experience related to course 3 years>

Does anyone have any experience about studying WSQ courses? Care to share? Costs for singaporean citizen?

Consider IT fields, maybe become coder?

It has been great for me to read such great post like this. It's really helpful for me

Know the Pre requisites
 

Seriously, the sales consultants must be knowledgeable of all the courses and tell the pre requisites for each course. Why?
So that you do not end up taking a course that's over your head (ie too difficult) and waste all your time!

May I also add, there are many who do want to learn but do not need or want the certificate.
Why make everyone sit for a test? it should be made optional.

for sure skills that are either social media related, mobile apps related, big data, AI types are useful... question is will we innately like doing it?
