Committee of Supply 2026 debate, Day 3: Andre Low on SkillsFuture and quality micro-credentials
In parliament on Monday (Mar 2), NCMP Andre Low reiterated his concern about SkillsFuture becoming a “supermarket of choices” - plenty of choice, but no clear ladder to climb towards better career outcomes. He asked the Ministry of Education to take three steps to deter this, including evolving the Career & Skills Passport into a “dynamic living credential”, as well as setting explicit targets for Institutes of Higher Learning micro-credential offerings in fast-moving sectors, and to report progress against those targets annually.
