Connect by SWDA is open at the Lifelong Learning Institute, 11 Eunos Road 8, a short walk from Paya Lebar MRT. Prime Minister Lawrence Wong opened the centre on 16 September 2026 during SkillsFuture Festival 2026, folding career advisory, skills guidance and employment support into one address.
The ground floor takes walk-ins for careers and skills resources, on-site Careers and Skills Advisors, and AI-supported course and funding suggestions. The second floor runs on pre-booked appointments for deeper career coaching, employer workforce and job-redesign sessions, and professional development for career practitioners.
