IMDA expands job opportunities in media with updated skills framework

It will also launch apprenticeship programs in collaboration with seven media companies.

The Infocomm Media Development Authority (IMDA) has announced a refreshed Skills Framework for Media, incorporating emerging fields such as Virtual Production (VP) and Generative AI (GenAI).

IMDA said this will provide locals with more job and training opportunities in new tech areas, another new initiative is the company-led apprenticeship programme with media companies.

This updated framework outlines 195 job roles across nine tracks and includes 230 technical skills and competencies to equip media professionals for a rapidly evolving industry.

Additionally, IMDA will launch apprenticeship programs in collaboration with seven media companies, providing over 70 on-the-job training opportunities in content production, business management, and technical roles.

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.
