Two new place-and-train programmes have been launched as part of the National Trades Union Congress's efforts to get more locals into the supply chain industry.
The Place-and-Train Logistics Specialists programme is for locals with at least N-level qualifications and it will put them in jobs paying at least $1,600 a month. Participating firms can get funding support for up to 90 per cent of the course fees, capped at $1,800 per trainee. Trainees will also get a monthly $400 training allowance for up to six months.
For mid-career professionals, managers and executives with diplomas, there is the Place-and-Train Logistics Operation Executives programme. Participants will receive a monthly $1,000 training allowance for up to six months, and will have a starting salary of at least $2,500. Firms can get funding for up to half of the course fees, capped at $2,750 per trainee.
The schemes were announced on Monday by the NTUC's Transport & Logistics Services Cluster. In a separate training programme for drivers launched in July last year, the cluster also subsidised Class 3 and Class 4 driving licences for 700 unemployed or low-wage workers, thus helping them to get jobs or increase their pay. Another 2,000 places are now available for subsidised Class 3 licences.

Do what you can and study nursing... if you can get into a nursing course I will be able to advice more.
Are you a person who likes to meet people or someone who would rather work behind computers ? Answer this question first .
The people who likes to speak up and meet people become the more successful and well to do ones
With your current Certs, you must find out which courses in any poly will accept you
Email to them and they can advise you
Apply for that course , never mind which course , just complete and get the diploma cert.
That's your first step. Then you can go and apply to be a property agent , insurance agent or any other job . The basic requirements is at least a diploma . Once you are in the workforce , 10% is paper qualification and 90% is your performance attitiude .
If you totally dislike studying , than work the hard way up as a sales promoter and earn $1000 a month and live life a day at a time .
Two schemes to attract more Singaporeans into the logistics industry have been launched by the National Trades Union Congress (NTUC).
They promise a job along with training, to meet growing demand in this sector that involves the storage and distribution of goods.
One is the Place-and-Train Logistics Specialists programme, which aims to place 100 trainees in jobs paying at least $1,600 a month.
It is for Singaporeans or permanent residents with at least N-level qualifications. They will receive a monthly training allowance of $400 while their employers can get funding for up to 90 per cent of course fees, capped at $1,080 per trainee.
The other scheme is for mid-career professionals, managers and executives with diplomas.
Called Place-and-Train Logistics Operation Executives programme, it hopes to attract 50 trainees, who will get a $1,000 training allowance and starting pay of at least $2,500.
Firms can get funding for half the fees, up to $2,750 per trainee.
The programmes are part of NTUC's Transport & Logistics Services Cluster's continuing effort to draw locals into the industry.
Another training scheme, launched last year, has subsidised Class 3 and 4 driving licences for 700 workers so far, helping them get new jobs or better pay. For instance, 30 unemployed workers found jobs after getting a Class 3 licence, making at least $1,500.
Another 206 low-wage workers had pay rises after getting Class 4 licences for heavy vehicles. They earn more than $2,120, up from $1,700 to $1,800 before. Another 2,000 places are open for Class 3 licences.
The schemes and updates were announced yesterday during an NTUC visit to the Tampines warehouse of logistics company YCH Group.
Following NTUC's programmes, it has drawn up two new career paths for material handlers, who move goods in warehouses. Now they can go on to be heavy vehicle drivers, or be trained to be logistics assistants.
Also, a new automated storage system has freed its material handlers to acquire more skills and, in turn, earn more. Said its chief executive Robert Yap: "Being more productive means we can pay them more."
