Through the SkillsFuture AI Subscription initiative, individuals can receive complimentary six-month access to selected premium AI tools.
SWDA has also introduced an AI Ready Quiz, developed in partnership with the Singapore Institute of Technology. The quiz is designed to help individuals evaluate their AI readiness and identify courses that may be relevant to them.
