Workforce Essentials

Workforce Essentials (WFE) is compulsory and forms part of the graduation requirements for a learner who wishes to pursue a degree. It is guided by SIT’s Work-Learn Integration (WLI) policy.

The two objectives of the WFE are:

• Identify and address skills gaps in work and career; and
• Immerse in the work environment of the specific industry.

WFE comprises two modules::

• Career Catalyst; and
• Relevant Industry Work Experience.

Learners can embark on WFE upon enrolling into the degree and have up to two trimesters and three attempts to demonstrate the competencies and pass the module. Learners can apply for Recognition of Prior Learning of either of the modules of WFE if they satisfy the necessary criteria.
