Lianhe Zaobao, 3 Dec 2015 - PSA Corporation Limited (PSA) and SP signed five-year memorandum of understanding (MOU) to develop a Specialist Diploma in Port Management and Operations, among other initiatives. This is a 12-month work-study Earn and Learn Programme (ELP) under the national SkillsFuture initiative. It will have a first batch of 20 graduates, and will expand to take in as many as 1,500 over the next five years. The ELP will provide fresh polytechnic graduates with a head-start in maritime careers relevant to their course of study. They will benefit from full-time employment, a structured learning framework and career advancement pathways. Eligible PSA staff, who graduated from polytechnic less than five years ago, can also enrol in the ELP to deepen their skills and attain industry-recognised certification.
