SINGAPORE: Singapore has formed a Talent Development Alliance (TDA) to help the country's companies gain a stronger foothold in the China market through education and training.
Driven by IE Singapore, the alliance is the first of its kind in the industry in Singapore with seven institutions from the public and private sectors - Civil Service College, ITE Education Services, NTUC LearningHub, Nanyang Technological University, National University of Singapore and Singapore Management University.
A Memorandum of Understanding was signed on Wednesday.
IE Singapore said as China's economy continues to move from one that's driven by investments to one that's based on consumption, demand in the education and training sectors will grow exponentially.
China's workforce will need skills upgrading and higher education to support this development.
Singapore companies, with their forte in the services sector, as well as in education and training, can leverage these developments to contribute to China's growth.
