Rates vary by course and learner. ### SkillsFuture Credit Eligible Singapore Citizens can use available SkillsFuture Credit for eligible programmes. Different tiers have different restrictions. ### Employer support Support for company-sponsored training depends on the employer, employees, course and specific scheme conditions. CITIZENS · 25 AND ABOVE ## Opening SkillsFuture Credit. Eligible Singapore Citizens aged 25 and above receive a base SkillsFuture Credit allocation of **S$500**. It has no expiry date and may be used for courses eligible under the Opening Credit rules, subject to any remaining balance. The credit is separate from course fee subsidies. An eligible learner may use available credit towards the applicable out-of-pocket fee.

The separate **S$4,000 Mid-Career SkillsFuture Credit** is restricted to selected course categories. It should not be assumed available for every two-day AI course. Further categories apply to new course runs from **1 December 2026**; check the official portal for the actual course. CITIZENS & PERMANENT RESIDENTS ## Different eligibility rules. ### Singapore Citizens May qualify for applicable course fee subsidies and, separately, SkillsFuture Credit if the course and credit tier are eligible. ### Singapore Permanent Residents May qualify for certain course fee subsidies, but do not receive SkillsFuture Credit. Your actual payable fee must be checked for the approved run. COURSE CLASSIFICATION ## WSQ and non-WSQ. WSQ refers to Singapore’s Workforce Skills Qualifications framework. A **non-WSQ** course does not confer a WSQ qualification, even if the course is government-supported. GenAI Builder Sprint is a **SkillsFuture Funded Course**. The approved profile lists relevant course support categories. Funding is subject to eligibility; the amount or tier available to a particular learner is not automatic.
