    • Fuck skillsfuture. Most of the training providers are scammers with no real lecturer
    • There are many SkillsFuture courses out there. Which are the right ones to take? | The Straits Times   https://www.straitstimes.com/opinion/there-are-many-skillsfuture-courses-out-there-which-are-the-right-ones-to-take   The article titled **"There are many SkillsFuture courses out there. Which are the right ones to take?"** published in *The Straits Times* addresses a dilemma many Singaporean workers face: how to choose the right training program from a massive catalog of thousands of available courses, especially with the introduction of the SkillsFuture Level-Up Programme (which gives mid-career Singaporeans aged 40 and above a $4,000 credit top-up). Because the article is behind a strict paywall, the exact verbatim text cannot be fully extracted, but the core thesis and advice of the commentary center around adapting to an era dominated by **Artificial Intelligence (AI) and rapid technological shifts**. The article outlines a strategic approach to selecting the "right" course:   ### 1. The Core Dilemma: Choice Fatigue vs. Industry Evolution With thousands of courses available, many individuals fall into the trap of choosing programs based on convenience, hobbies, or superficial trends rather than long-term career resilience. The commentary emphasizes that in an age of AI, training is no longer optional—but **poorly targeted training is a waste of resources.**   ### 2. Focus on "AI-Resilient" and Complementary Skills Instead of running away from technology, the right courses are those that teach workers how to co-exist with and leverage tech.    * **Tech-Complementary Roles:** Look for courses that teach you how to use AI and automation to enhance your *current* job rather than attempting to learn entirely new fields from scratch.    * **Human-Centric Capabilities:** Courses that focus on high-level strategy, complex problem-solving, emotional intelligence, and leadership are highly recommended, as these remain difficult for AI to replicate.   ### 3. Shift from Academic Credentials to Skills Clusters The article advocates looking at skills "bundles" or clusters that directly map to industry transformations (e.g., green economy transitions, care economy, digital infrastructure). Rather than picking isolated, short ad-hoc courses, the right approach involves structured, modular pathways (like SkillsFuture Career Transition Programmes) that lead to a recognizable industry pivot or career upgrade.   ### 4. Direct Alignment with Job Outcomes The "right" course is one that closes a specific gap between your current skill set and the requirements of hiring employers. The article advises workers to look closely at market demands, job portals, and official SkillsFuture frameworks to see which skills are actively being sought after by companies right now, rather than relying solely on course titles that look attractive on paper.   ### Key Questions to Ask Yourself Before Selecting a Course: If you are currently trying to decide which course to use your credits on, the article's logic suggests filtering choices through these three questions:    1. **Does this course help me do my current job faster or better using modern tools?**    2. **Does it teach me a skill that is projected to be in high demand over the next 3 to 5 years (e.g., Sustainability, AI integration)?**    3. **Is this course recognized by employers, or does it offer a modular pathway toward a larger qualification?**
