By right, to make the whole thing work, there should be an industry attachment to local company like NCS (do national duty) to let them picked up some experience so that it is easier for them to find the next job.
When MOE defined their KPI, only care about how many people took the course, but not taking care what is the conversion rate of the course participant being able to find a job eventually (with the course knowledge gained).
Why must hire locals for IT when the whole of SG is already flooded with CECA?
No reason to hire locals when EP gives unfettered access without levies nor quota, too.
At my ex- workplace, they already rejected our own locals for IT fresh/ young grads job because they only want their own CECA.
Are those NUS & NTU IT grads so unworthy just because they are not CECA?
Isn't this Discrimination but funnily, always allowed. This is how CECA connive to sink my country.

PAP and Tan SL is sending us in a Wild Goose Chase.
They think their freefall ideas can solve their intentional negative impact on us.
Covid has changed the SG job market but only those 5 jobs or so. The rest are not much affected yet jobless. Why everything they must blame Covid?
So many lame excuse from their own mistakes.

Dear xxx
You don't have to send me all these info
What i need is practical help!
And you said it rightly, all courses I took are not real experience.
Now it makes me wonder why gov is wasting tax payers money in re-skiling us.
Just for me, the courses i took:
The IBM course is about $30,000 a student
and all the other courses are at least 30 x $1500 = $45,000
And i understand only 20% of students from ibm to-date are employed in tech.
I think i will highlight to My Heng, my MP
Anyway thanks for your time
no use lah.
the purpose of the course is to give you money and for you to pass time while looking for job.
our government is good to have this scheme - to help you in the interim, also to lower the official unemployment figure.
just attend the course and forget about it
if you can find job, then it is good, else attend another course again.

I also saw a Career Coach and Career Ambassador under WSG for MOM. Both FAILED.
Career Coach asked me to send to the Airline for the vacancy but I barely have 10% job fit!!
The Career Ambassador sent me a job advertisement where I may need to get that job for training where I only fit 30%.
GOSH! This is the best they can do?
Such a waste of time.

Well said, our NUS & NTU grads should be given a chance to get a job, not one from CECA. This is total discrimination on the locals......
