ST Logistics inks deals to upskill Singapore's logistics workforce

Young professionals can gain new skills, knowledge and certification through tech courses and programmes.

ST Logistics has signed two Memorandums of Understanding (MOUs) with NTUC LearningHub and the National University of Singapore (NUS) to train the logistics workforce amidst the increased automation and digitalisation within the sector, an announcement revealed.

The two company-to-institution MOUs aim to establish a common-learning framework for firms in Singapore to upskill talent within their respective industries and act as a model for other business sectors.

ST Logistics and NUS’ MOU will provide training opportunities for working adults, new knowledge, skills and certification through technology courses and programmes, whilst the MOU with NTUC LearningHub will catalyse the skills-upgrading efforts between the two parties, the statement revealed.

“Logistics companies should not only embrace innovation but also look at reskilling and upgrading their workforce to prepare for the increasingly digitised and connected supply chain world,” Lee Eng Keat, executive director for commercial and professional services at the Economic Development Board (EDB), said in a statement.

In addition, ST Logistics and Toll Group will work together to support the development of local Singapore talent through internal and partnership programs, the announcement highlighted.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
