Ever thought you’d need a diploma to scrub toilets? Welcome to Singapore, where they’re making toilet cleaning an official skill complete with its own course.
Yes, you heard it right! The MySkillsFuture Portal is now offering a course that’s all about mastering the art of keeping loos sparkly clean.
This isn’t just any course—it’s a government-backed initiative by the big guns: SkillsFuture Singapore, Workforce Singapore, and the Ministry of Education, along with a host of other partners.
The buzz kicked off when someone in the “人在狮城漂 ” Facebook group found this gem of a course titled “Basic Cleaning of Toilets” and decided to share the news.
This course is not messing around; it covers the A to Z of toilet maintenance, from gearing up for cleaning sessions to tackling the nitty-gritty of sanitary fixtures, floors, and walls, and even making sure those hygiene supplies are topped up.
This news got folks chatting and chuckling over the idea that we’re entering an era where even tossing trash might need a diploma soon.
Comments flew in like, “Nowadays waiters and cleaners need a cert too,” and “Dreaming of being a toilet cleaner? Better get that diploma first!”
It’s clear the diploma debate is heating up.
“To earn money, these companies really will come up with all sorts of courses.”
So, as Singapore takes toilet cleaning to school, it’s not just about the laughs. It’s a nod to the importance of every job and the skills it requires, proving once again that in this city-state, there’s truly a place for everyone to learn and grow.
