Course Overview
This innovative programme, taught in Singapore, is designed by Cardiff University in partnership with the Institute for Adult Learning, Singapore and is aimed at practitioners, policy makers and researchers in the East Asian region. In a period of global economic transformation, technological innovation and market uncertainty, the need for innovative approaches to skills and workforce development has never been greater. Established ideas and models have been called into question as developed and developing economies look for new policies to enhance the performance of national economies and improve the well-being of individuals. In recognising these fundamental challenges, our MSc in Skills and Workforce Development aims to develop expertise and enhance professional capacity in the field of employment, skills and workforce development in a changing global context. We seek to provide you with the knowledge and analytical tools to develop and assess alternative policy interventions, identify and seek solutions to challenges in workforce development, and undertake effective research in the field.
