There are tens of thousands of courses in the SkillsFuture course directory, which is exactly the problem: the sheer number makes it hard to find anything you would actually enjoy.
Here are seven of ours worth a look. All are SkillsFuture-eligible, so your credit can go towards them. Fees change, so check the current price on the course page rather than trusting any figure written a year ago.
The practical end of AI: writing, summarising, planning and tidying up the work you already do, using ChatGPT and the tools around it.
Less about the technology than about deciding which parts of your week are worth handing over — and which are not.
Generative AI for Productivity
Aperture, shutter and ISO taught on your own camera until the three stop being settings you avoid and start being decisions you make.
Good if you bought a camera two years ago and have shot everything on auto since.
Midjourney, Canva and ChatGPT used the way a designer uses them: generating images, editing them, and writing prompts precise enough to get the same result twice.
Prompt engineering is the core of it — the difference between a tool that occasionally surprises you and one you can direct.
The opposite of the course above, and a good antidote to it: pigment, water and paper, learning how much control you actually have over something that behaves partly on its own.
Popular with people who want a few hours a week that involve no screen whatsoever.
Recording, arranging and mixing a track from nothing to something you would actually send to someone — on free software, so nothing stops you continuing at home.
CPF, insurance, investment basics and what to do with a salary in a city this expensive. Dull-sounding and the most immediately useful thing on this list.
Structuring a talk, holding a room, and handling the questions afterwards. It is the skill that makes every other skill you have visible to the people who make decisions.
Presentations and Public Speaking
Check that the course is approved for the specific credit you intend to use — the opening credit and the mid-career credit cover different things, and this is where most claims come unstuck. Our guide to SkillsFuture Credit explains which is which, and NTUC members should also read the UTAP guide — it reimburses half of whatever you still pay.
The funding calculator shows what you would pay after subsidy, and the full catalogue has the rest of what we run.
