SkillsFuture Enterprise Credit (SFEC): How Employers Can Use It
SkillsFuture Enterprise Credit encourages employers to invest in workforce and enterprise transformation. Employers should first check whether they have available SFEC credit and whether the intended programme is eligible at the time of application.
What SFEC can support
| Use area | Examples |
|---|---|
| Workforce transformation | Training, job redesign and workforce capability programmes |
| Enterprise transformation | Productivity, digitalisation or business improvement programmes |
| Out-of-pocket offset | Credit may offset qualifying costs after other support, subject to scheme rules |
How employers should check eligibility
SFEC eligibility and remaining credit are company-specific. Use the official SkillsFuture channels to check available credit, eligible programmes, claim period and expiry rules before planning spend.
Practical workflow
- Check whether your company has SFEC credit available.
- Choose an eligible programme.
- Confirm claim mechanics and deadlines.
- Keep invoices, attendance records and completion evidence.
- Track credit balance after each claim.
SFEC planning table
| Question | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Do we still have credit? | Credit availability is company-specific |
| Is the programme eligible? | Not every training or consultancy expense qualifies |
| What is the claim deadline? | Expired credits cannot be used |
| What documents are needed? | Claims can fail without evidence |
Common mistakes
- Assuming every course qualifies.
- Ignoring expiry or claim deadlines.
- Not checking how SFEC interacts with other support.
- Losing completion evidence needed for claims.
