Being more than your Training Partner.
A Summary of Who, and What We Are
The Singapore Manufacturing Federation (SMF), formerly known as the Singapore Manufacturers’ Association, was first established in 1932. Its main aim is to champion the Singapore manufacturing sector. With a membership of over 3,000 corporate members ranging from MNCs to SMEs, SMF carries out a myriad of activities to enhance the competitive edge of our members.
At SMF CCL, we believe that the most important asset of any organisation is its people. We take pride in providing productivity improvement, manufacturing-related, thought-leadership and personal development programmes, empowering people with the knowledge needed to perform at their optimum. This in turn translates to greater competitiveness for the organisation.
Through our continued efforts at responding to global business needs, as well as through our dedication to our corporate clients and individual learners, SMF CCL strives to be the preferred corporate training and development centre.
