Workforce International Skills Certification (WISC) Corporation Singapore

Workforce International Skills Certification (WISC) Corporation Singapore was set up in November 2018. WISC is a competency-based certification in skills development, from training and assessment to learning and performance. WISC is designed to meet the needs of training organisations to expand to overseas markets and to internationalise their products and services. WISC certification is referenced to the Singapore Workforce Skills Qualifications (WSQ) systems and yet complementary to overseas countries where there are existing national skill certification frameworks. WISC designs and develops joint certification systems to align and map WISC Certification system with National Skills Qualifications Framework (NSQF). We aim to provide an umbrella system for all the skilling activities being carried out beyond the respective national systems, thereby providing quality benchmarks in the concept, establishment and running of the various skilling initiatives. It will also align various skill development programs to standardized norms and processes, thereby reducing the multiplicity of norms and parameters that result in avoidable difficulties in implementation of the skilling initiatives.
