COMPANIES can now tap a new scheme to source trainers from overseas, so as to help local workers pick up skills and knowledge that may be lacking in Singapore.

The Manpower Ministry (MOM) has started a pilot run of the programme to fund salary and training for both foreign and local trainers, and local trainees by between 30 per cent and 90 per cent. It can fund on-the-job training overseas as well.
