Course Administration & Certification

When registering for the WSH Microlearning Programme, participants can expect to receive the e-learning link within three working days.

Participants who have completed all ten of the WSH Microlearning modules and the associated quizzes will instantly gain access to the Official Note of Completion Acknowledgment. The Official Note of Completion Acknowledgement can be used to verify that the Trainee have completed the ML Prog and be allowed to register for the CSOC 2 Days Course with any of the approved TPs. This acknowledgment can be obtained by accessing the SCAL Academy's e-learning application with your login upon finishing the WSH Microlearning programme.

Additionally, participants will receive a separate Certificate of Participation from SCAL Academy within three working days. The Certificate of Participation will be sent via email to the participant and the Person-In-Charge (PIC)

Additional Information

  • Languages Offered: English, Tamil, Bengali, Mandarin, Malay, Hindi, Burmese, Thai, Vietnamese, Khmer, and Lao.

  • Online Delivery: The micro-learning modules are delivered online, making it convenient for workers to access the course without the need for a physical presence at a training center.

  • Importance of Participation: As of 1 January 2024, the CSOC re-certification assessment will include questions from the micro-learning content. It's crucial that Construction work pass holders undertake this program to avoid potential failure in their CSOC re-certification. This would not only lead to additional training costs but also the necessity to redo the entire WSH Micro-learning Programme and the two-day CSOC.

Construction companies are hence strongly advised to enroll their workers in this essential program, ensuring they are adequately equipped and prepared for their recertification assessment.
