• These workshops are geared toward living skills but instead of work skills. These will go beyond what the post-secondary education institutions already provide in terms of part-time courses for jobs and updating. Singaporeans nationals aged 50 and older would be eligible for reimbursement of up to 50% off the registration fees.

• Multigenerational educational interventions, for example, pair students with senior citizens to learn about specific topics. Other services for elderly include short speeches given by our post-secondary education institutions and voluntary welfare organizations.

• These programs are chosen from testing the functionality services available for a nominal cost by ITE, institutes of technology, and schools to Singapore citizens. The elderly may study these courses with ordinary undergraduate learners for merit, i.e., to acquire a credential such as a degree or qualification. However, seniors are not required to take the exams.
