19 Dr Wan Rizal asked the Minister for Manpower for each of the last five years, in respect of the Career Conversion Programme and the Mid-Career Pathways Programme, what are the (i) applicant profile and (ii) participant profile, respectively, broken down into the age bands (i) 21 to 35; (ii) 36 to 40; (iii) 41 to 50; (iv) 51 to 60 years; (v) 61 and above.

Dr Tan See Leng: The profile of Career Conversion Programme (CCP) participants and applicants, and Mid-Career Pathways Programme (MCPP) participants by age bands are appended in the tables below. The number of CCP applicants exceed the number of CCP participants, which is common in employment programmes. Additionally, some individuals may apply for multiple CCPs, contributing to higher overall application numbers. The Ministry of Manpower does not track the number of applicants for MCPP.
