Jobs-Skills Integrators: execution must go beyond coordination
BUDGET 2023 sets out the ambition for quality, inclusive economic growth. The Jobs-Skills Integrators (JSI) was one of the key initiatives announced, in line with the vision set out in Forward SG, to empower every Singaporean to have lifelong employability amid an uncertain world.
Deputy Prime Minister Lawrence Wong emphasised the need for training to translate into good employment outcomes, where the workforce is equipped to seize opportunities and enterprises remain competitive and relevant. The JSI is therefore envisioned as an intermediary that links up industry, training and employment facilitation partners to achieve that goal.
