The two afternoon talks on 28 July 2016 – “Secrets of Influence and Persuasion with NLP” by Jacky Lim, Acme Achievers, and 5 October 2016 - “Presenting Intelligence”, by Roshini Ganesan, LOA Centre, saw a total of 20 and 24 participants respectively.

The elegant atmosphere at the Orchid Country Club at Peach Garden Restaurant had made the ELITC Annual Dinner 2016 a relaxing evening filled with endless bonding in conversation and mingling with management committee, colleagues and associate trainers. This is an appreciation dinner for the people in the company with a total of 29 colleagues and associate trainers who attended the Annual Dinner; where the restaurant served delectably colourful dishes for the evening. There were dishes like Roasted Chicken with Lemongrass and Steamed Marble Goby with Ginger & Garlic etc. The network and warm ambience kept the time together meaningful where everyone caught up with each other on topics of sorts. Our General Manager, Ms. Lim Lee Chin ended the evening with words of gratitude and thanked everybody for taking time to come together over a time of good food. We had a photo taken together to end the wonderful night.

Useful tips were shared by Jacky in understanding the human thought process and being more aware of subconscious motivations to help build influence in decision making.

Roshini’s session guided the audience on how to

better prepare, organise and structure presentation

content and develop a “story” by incorporating

data and evidence necessary with suitable

anecdotes.

Once again, we have come to the end of a good calendar year with gratitude

for the steadfast support of our members and clients, partners, trainers

and colleagues. 2016 has seen ELITC attaining the 4-year EduTrust

award, organising our 30th anniversary events and activities, and having

the outreach opportunities to showcase ELITC’s programmes to a wide

audience on various platforms with Employment and Employability Institute

(e2i) such as job fairs for manufacturing, Ministry of Defence (MINDEF)/

Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) Enhanced Career and Education Fair for

national servicemen and organization road-shows with United Workers

of Electronics and Electrical Industries (UWEEI), etc. To top the year

off, e2i has come to support two work skills improvement programmes

with a 50% course fee funding for Singaporeans and Permanent

Residents. For more information or registration, please contact us at

On 28 September 2016, Electronics Industries Training Centre (ELITC) was invited by Employment and Employability Institute (e2i) to the Manufacturing & Transport Career Fair. It was a well-executed event with about 250 enthusiastic Singaporean and Permanent Resident (PR) job seekers who came early to apply for positions put forth by 14 companies from various focus of manufacturing.

There were about 400 vacancies and about 70 job designations available. The locals in search for jobs streamed in good numbers at around 10am and started enquiring on the opportunities available to them. Some large established companies present included Baxter Healthcare, CCL Design, Celestica, Edwards Lifesciences, SMRT, Sony Electronics, LF Logistics, etc. Job seekers patiently filled up application forms given and were hopeful when making their rounds to HR staff at their tables. The event space was conducive for form-filling by candidates and interviews were conducted on the spot. The companies were able to analyze and make evaluations of those present and interested on the available roles; some successfully selected and employed, while others to await 2nd interview by relevant department heads.

The main objective for this Job Fair is to assist unemployed Singaporeans and PRs in their job search and keep unemployment rate in Singapore at its low. ELITC will continue to work closely with e2i, industry partners and organisations to provide Place and Train, Train and Place for the manufacturing climate.

Over the last three months, ELITC ran practical and theoretical IPC certifications and a related solder workshop for organizations, such as ST Electronics, Amplus Communication, Nanyang Technological University, etc. The workshop led by Mr. Steve Fribbins, a Master IPC Trainer, was on “Hand-Soldering and Rework, including High Melting Point (HMP) Soldering”. The participants went through comprehensive soldering practice using tin/ lead or lead-free solders, which also includes rework throughout the 2 days on 29 – 30 August 2016. The class covered areas of basic solder of terminals and post, through-hole components and surface mount components. The participants gained knowledge necessary to ensure quality skills and the latest acceptable workmanship requirements. On the same week, IPC/WHMA-A-620 for Cable and Harness Fabrication and Installation was conducted by Master IPC Trainer, Mr. Wayne Leong to certify participants as specialists. IPC J-STD-001 was scheduled in early October with Steve, for a main group from the university where participants learnt the requirements for soldered electrical and electronics assemblies, defining standards of materials, methods and verification criteria for producing high quality soldered interconnections.
