About the CCP
Workforce Singapore (WSG)’s CCP offers employers salary support to facilitate the reskilling and transition of mid-career new hires or existing employees into new job roles with promising prospects.
There are three main modes of the CCP:
- Place-and-Train: The Company hires a jobseeker and puts the individual through on-the-job training (OJT) or industry-recognised training to take on a new growth job role.
- Attach-and-Train: The company acts as a host employer to provide the jobseeker with training and work attachments, in growth job roles with good prospects for placement.
- Job Redesign (JR) Reskilling: The Company sends an existing employee for reskilling, to take on growth job roles aligned to industry Transformation Maps (ITMs) / Jobs Transformation Maps (JTMs).
