AUPE, Civil Service College (CSC) and the Government of Singapore, represented by the Public Service Division (PSD) inked a Memorandum of Understanding to form the Public Service Cluster Training Committee (PS CTC) to mobilise the Public Service workforce to embrace skills-upgrading and help public officers reskill and be ready for future jobs and operating environments.<\/p>\n

The Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) was signed by AUPE\u2019s General Secretary Sanjeev Kumar Tiwari, PSD\u2019s Permanent Secretary Loh Khum Yean and CSC\u2019s Dean and Chief Executive Officer Ms Ong Toon Hui at the AUPE\u2019s 60th Anniversary Dinner. President Halimah Yacob and NTUC Secretary-General Ng Chee Meng witnessed the signing<\/p>\n

The Committee, in partnership with NTUC, would set the direction and identify training needs in upskilling and reskilling officers to help them stay employable.<\/p>\n

This was AUPE\u2019s promise in supporting our members as they face new challenges and giving them the competitive edge.<\/p>\n

As Mr Sanjeev Tiwari said in his address at the AUPE’s 60th Anniversary Dinner, \u201cWe need to be adaptable and make sure our workers are ready for the new technologies our agencies may use in time to come, and help them remain employable for as long as possible.\u201d<\/p>\n

President Halimah echoed the sentiments in her address as she emphasised the different challenges faced by the Public Service today, which would require them to be receptive to continuous change and find innovate ways to address various demands by the public. \u201cIt is important for the public sector to continue to transform itself to face the challenges ahead.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mr Loh said, \u201cThe setting up of this Cluster Training Committee is timely as it helps the Public Service prepare our officers to stay employable over longer career spans. Our union leaders can complement PSD\u2019s efforts by helping to identify training needs, promoting the take up of skills training among workers through their various branch unions, as well as advise members to be open to job transitions throughout a career within the Public Service.\u201d<\/p>\n
