THE statutory boards handling workforce development and private schools are set to be reorganised by the end of 2016 in an internal government reshuffle that business leaders hope will bring even more coordination and traction to Singapore's drive to encourage lifelong learning and meet industry manpower needs.
The Singapore Workforce Development Agency (WDA) and the Council for Private Education (CPE) will be turned into two new statutory boards: SkillsFuture Singapore (SSG) and Workforce Singapore (WSG), their parent ministries said on Tuesday, adding that these are tentative names.
