Adept Academy is an SSG-approved Training Organisation already running WSQ Retail and HR frameworks at 50–90% government subsidy. Extending to a Built Environment supervisor track is curriculum work, not capability build. For RCY, CKMBT, GeoAlliance, Rankine & Hill, and RJ Crocker, replicating this requires a 12–18 month SSG application, S$150K curriculum investment, and an Approved Training Organisation audit. They cannot match this on a relevant timeline.
M&E technicians, draftsmen, foremen reskilled into RTO competence. SCTP / CCP funded. 50–90% government salary support during training. Underpinned by the SP MOU and ITE Work Study Chair.
→ Year-3 hire-channel share: 15%
Building Construction Supervisor Safety Course conversion programmes for new RTOs. Direct preparation for JAC accreditation. Bench-training during JAC processing window (typical 6–10 weeks).
