Government requires large construction firms to undergo CET

Companies have 12 months to implement CET measures to be able to bid government projects.

The national drive to boost productivity across all sectors in Singapore has been extended to the construction sector. All large construction firms must show that they are committed to Continuing Education Training (CET) in order to bid for government projects, according to an Enterprise One report.

The move is aimed at enhancing skills, and also driving competitiveness and the capacity to handle more complex projects.

From November 2010, all large construction firms have to put CET initiatives in place in order to register on the Building and Construction Authority (BCA) Contractors Registry. They have 12 months to do so.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
