Courses from the IBM SkillsBuild platform can be used and adapted into vocational training.
IBM announced a collaboration with two polytechnics and a training provider to use and adapt lessons from tech-related courses on the IBM SkillsBuild platform.
SkillsBuild, which was launched in 2021, offers courses for free as part of IBM’s goal to provide online training to 30 million people globally by 2030. According to IBM chief impact officer and vice-president Justina Nixon-Saintil, around 11.5 million people had used the educational platform the end of 2023.
Students will also be encouraged to complete AI or other courses to attain IBM’s professional certifications, which help to enhance their portfolio when applying for jobs, said Mr Loh. Ms Ng said: “If you tell kids to go online to do a quiz, they probably won’t do it by themselves. So we can use the modules to design our courses as a teaser to topics like AI and cyber security.”
Building an AI-equipped workforce would require “a proactive approach by going upstream to prepare our youths even before they enter the workforce”, said Ms Rahayu on Aug 23.
