What is the work-study programme (WSP)?
The Work Study Programme is a structured training programme developed by local institutes of learning, industry partners, and the government to nurture skilled workers beyond traditional academic pathways.
Participants earn a salary while attending part-time courses at local polytechnics. At the end of the programme, participants achieve a Work-Study Post Diploma and secure a full-time position with their employer.
At AcePLP, potential applicants must first register as a Trainee BIM Engineer. Applicants who are interested can approach HR to apply for the WSP.

- Receive a $5000.00 sign-on incentive on completion of the Work Study Programme
- Gain technical skills while learning on the job
