In a commentary, SMU Vice President (Business Development) and Associate Professor of Finance Annie Koh noted that SkillsFuture would be “a clear, important overarching framework that will look into sector-specific skills training which will take Singapore in the correct direction of long-term, sustainable growth”. She added that she envisions a “future education scenario where people will come back to university and take modules for life-long learning”. She also hoped that after SMU students graduate, they can still return to the University to hear about global trends, attend alumni talks, and pick up new skills.
