The problem is that's not the way the Skillsfuture courses are marketed, they are all promoted as mid career conversion courses with all the adverts / news articles reporting "touching" stories of how someone took a course and then found a new calling. Can we blame the students for being naïve when the courses fail to lift up to its claims?

Another thing of practical reality is many of its attendees have to find ways to make ends meet, they do not have unlimited time and resource to sit around attending a 6 -12 months diploma course only to be told this is just a "small step" in the right direction. That's why most end up driving PHV, food delivery or do SDA jobs - although these jobs have limited advancement potential, at least they provide instant livable income.

so misinformed,half information passed,not true enough.
