Singapore, 7 July 2026 – Singaporeans looking to upskill will now have more course choices, greater access through SkillsFuture Credit eligibility and higher flexibility to build AI capabilities, with a new partnership between Temasek Polytechnic (TP) and online learning platform Udemy. Through this partnership, adult learners can access over 800 AI courses and 30 curated pathways to pursue AI upskilling in preparation for the future economy.

With the combination of TP’s Continuing Education and Training (CET) expertise andUdemy’s on-demand AI content, the partnership will help learners build practical, workplace-ready skills and become AI Bilingual professionals who can use AI tools to improve work, solve problems and create value across functions and industries.

Learners can choose courses from AI literacy and prompt writing to machine learning, cloud-based AI applications and agentic AI.

This programme is expected to run four times a year over two years, providing around 4,000 training places and 40,000 training hours annually.

Dr Kwan Kian Hoong, Director of Temasek SkillsFuture Academy, Temasek Polytechnic, said: “At Temasek Polytechnic, Creating Tomorrow means preparing learners not just for the jobs of today, but to also help them navigate and shape what comes next. AI bilingualism is one part of that journey — where learners get the confidence to connect AI with their professional knowledge, judgement and creativity to solve problems and create value. Through our partnership with Udemy, we are making practical AI capabilities more accessible, enabling learners to stay adaptable and future-ready as the world of work evolves."

TP and Udemy will also explore blended learning programmes that combine Udemy’s on-demand content with TP’s applied courses and training expertise. Udemy will involve ecosystem partners to broaden industry engagement and expose learners to emerging skills, real-world perspectives and current learning opportunities.

“Singapore has long been a front-runner in building future-ready talent, and this effort further builds on that momentum. By expanding access to SkillsFuture-credit-eligible content, we’re helping more learners gain practical AI skills they can apply in their everyday work and take the next step in their AI journey,” said Ashutosh Gupta, Managing Director, India and Asia Pacific, Coursera, which recently combined with Udemy.
