There is no guarantee of employment after the nine-month programme from the companies where the participants undergo training and get work experience, but the trainees will receive certification and this is expected to boost their future employability.

The six-month courses will provide industry-relevant skills to boost employability in the info-communications technology sector. Each participant will receive a monthly training allowance of $1,500, which is funded by SSG. The digital marketing course, due to start in September, will prepare participants for jobs in content strategy, business development and product marketing.These courses will be the first to be rolled out under SSG's SGUnited Mid-Career Pathways - Enterprise-based Training Programme, in support of the SGUnited Jobs and Skills Package.
