Practical, accessible, flexible and affordable – the Singapore Workforce Skills Qualifications (WSQ) system enables you to take charge of your career and its advancement.

Under the WSQ system, anyone can pick up skills and receive qualifications that are nationally recognised by employers. These qualifications are as good as the credentials issued by international and local institutions. Industries and employers validate the best international practices and standards that WSQ offers.

WSQ recognises prior learning such as work experience and qualifications. You can choose to take singular or flexible training modules. These singular modules can be built up to full qualifications over time at your pace.

With a WSQ certification, you are able to:

  • Plan career path and enter a new industry
  • Upgrade your skills and advance through clear progression pathways
  • Describe skills set clearly to employers
  • Obtain portable credentials for existing skills
  • Assess and benchmark your capabilities against industry standards.
