Sino-Singapore Tianjin Eco-City to house a training centre

Sino-Singapore Tianjin Eco-City to house a training centre

Singapore schools and educational institutions will be brought on board to establish the Skills Training & Development Centre (STDC) in the Eco-City.

A collaboration between the Sino-Singapore Tianjin Eco-City Investment & Development Co., Ltd. (SSTEC) and PSB Management Consulting (Shanghai) Co., Ltd., the STDC will offer courses for Skills or Technical Training, Corporate Training and Public Sector Training.

In addition, SSTEC has previously signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with LTA Academy to explore developing suitable programmes for sustainable land transport training for China in the STDC.

Goh Chye Boon, CEO of SSTEC said, "Education and skills training is an integral pillar to drive and support Eco-City’s industrial and residential growth. The proposed Skills and Training Development Centre (STDC) in Eco-Business Park will serve this purpose and support growing training demands by our investors. We are happy to partner an established Singapore education player with global reach like PSB to bring on board more quality training content providers to meet Eco-City’s immediate training needs in green buildings, energy efficiency, etc."

The Tianjin Eco-City in the Tianjin Binhai New Area, a 50/50 joint venture between the Chinese Consortium led by Tianjin TEDA Investment Holding Co., Ltd and the Singapore Consortium led by the Keppel Group, is a landmark bilateral project between China and Singapore with private-sector investment and development.
