Work-Based Learning (WBL) Coach and Tutor Development Workshop
On 9 June 2026, FOET had the opportunity to conduct the Work-Based Learning (WBL) Coach and Tutor Development Workshop for representatives from Kian Joo Can Factory (KJCF) and academic staffs of the Faculty of Engineering and Technology (FOET).
The workshop brought together 11 participants from KJCF and 5 academic staff members from FOET, providing a valuable platform to strengthen the collaboration between industry and academia in supporting Work-Based Learning (WBL) implementation.
Throughout the session, participants discussed the roles and responsibilities of WBL coaches and tutors, effective student mentoring strategies, assessment and monitoring processes, as well as best practices to ensure meaningful workplace learning experiences for students.
As WBL continues to bridge classroom learning with real industrial practice, the commitment and active participation from both industry and academic partners are essential in nurturing competent, industry-ready graduates.
A sincere thank you to Kian Joo Can Factory and FOET for their support, engagement, and dedication towards enhancing student learning and talent development. We look forward to strengthening this partnership and creating more impactful learning opportunities for our students.
