The Skills Redevelopment Programme (SRP) is an initiative by NTUC with the objective of enhancing the employability of workers by encouraging employers to send workers for training that leads to certification.
The Skills Redevelopment Programme-Real Estate Management & Maintenance Industry (SRP-REMMI) has its roots in the Building Construction & Timber Industries Employees’ Union seeking skills upgrading of its members employed in the industry. The initiative received the support of several lead players in their consent to serve in the Industry Lead Body and the launch of SRP-REMMI.

The Training Model depicts the continuum from General to Core to Specialist skills, and the sociological-technological-commercial interfaces and links that will be reinforced in the training.
The SRP-REMMI Lifelong Learning Roadmap provides progression pathways, at all levels in the industry, to facilitate continual learning and skills upgrading for enhancing employability and job enrichment:
- Operative/Frontline courses impart office/service/trade skills, enabling a three-step progression from entry level to senior frontline/chargehand and to supervisory/foreman level
- Operational/mid-management courses provide seamless skills transition, enabling the integration of business and technical skills and pursuit of parallel career paths
- Senior Operational/Management courses provide cutting-edge knowledge and skills to keep abreast with industry developments
A modular structure and certification has been adopted for courses at all levels to allow trainees to study at a pace as determined by personal and educational attributes, time availability and/or work schedules. The modular structure also permits recognition of prior learning for exemptions.
The applied academic courses ranging from Certificates, Diplomas and Post Graduate Certificates on the roadmap are recognised for advanced standing in built environment Bachelor and Masters programmes offered by universities in UK and Australian Universities and to membership of professional bodies.
Skills Certificate courses provide the required general skills to enter the Industry at Frontline-Operative Level.
