Enhancements to Professional Training on Smart and Green Logistics Scheme implemented today
With a view to helping the logistics sector to nurture more professional talents and to encourage in-service practitioners to equip themselves with up-to-date knowledge to support the industry in upgrading and transforming itself towards the direction of green and smart logistics, the Government launched the Professional Training on Smart and Green Logistics Scheme (PTSGLS, the Scheme) on 8 January 2024 under the Maritime and Aviation Training Fund (MATF).
The Scheme has been enhanced with effect from 4 October 2024 to, amongst others, include courses that operate on a self-financing basis with a view to providing more diversified course options to logistics industry practitioners.
The enhanced Scheme is open to all Hong Kong registered companies or educational institutions offering or wishing to offer training courses to apply to have their relevant courses registered as pre-approved courses under the Scheme. Each eligible course participant will be refunded 80% of the course fees, subject to a maximum amount of HK$30,000 per person, for the pre-approved courses he/she has completed. Each individual may apply for course fee refund for more than one pre-approved course, up to a cumulative cap of HK$30,000 per person, under the Scheme.
The Scheme accepts applications all year round and details of the Scheme are available on the dedicated website at ptsgls.hkpc.org. For enquiries, please contact the Secretariat of the Scheme (Tel: 2788 6077; email: [email protected]).
