At Panduit, we believe in the power of educating youth through skills training to drive economic growth and social mobility. That's why we are committed to promoting skills development in vocational education and training. We call this initiative #SkillsChangeLives.

Throwback to the exciting World Skills Singapore 2021 Information Network Cabling Challenge!
Students were putting their skills to the test by installing and testing campus distribution cabling setups involving UTP, F/UTP, multipair, and fiber optic cables. Plus, they're planning, installing, and testing multimedia cabling projects from outdoor distribution points to indoor multimedia ports. This Skillset was essential for future roles as Network Designers, IT Structured Cabling Administrators, Infrastructure Consultants, or Project Managers. As IP becomes the standard for transmitting all information, the demand for Data Centre, Smart Nation, IOT 4.0, and Intelligent Digital Building opportunities is on the rise.
We're proud to sponsor the Information Network Cabling for World Skills Singapore 2021.
