4 key areas that will prepare 3,000 ITE students for workforce transition

This is supported by Prudential's TEE-Up, a program focused on skill development.

Prudential Singapore and the Institute of Technical Education (ITE) signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to provide 3,000 students with courses designed to make them workforce-ready, focusing on four pivotal areas: automation, financial literacy, generative AI, and design thinking.

This partnership, underpinned by Prudential's Talent Engagement Ecosystem (TEE-Up), will run for over three years.

The MOU encompasses internships and a mentorship programme, as well as industry talks, learning journeys, and opportunities for students to engage in real-world applications of their knowledge through internships and hackathons.

The students will have access to over 300 video resources across social media, featuring professional insights, productivity hacks, and entrepreneurial success stories.

Since its pilot launch in 2022, TEE-Up has expanded its reach, collaborating with five polytechnics in Singapore to further prepare students for the workforce. This has involved pairing students with over 120 industry mentors from diverse sectors.

The signing event saw the participation of nearly 90 stakeholders from ITE, Polytechnics, Prudential, and the industry.

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
