Manus AI and Heicoders Academy have joined forces to introduce GA100: Generative AI & Agentic Systems, Singapore’s inaugural hands-on AI agent upskilling course. This initiative, announced on 22 October 2025, is designed to equip working professionals with the skills to design and deploy AI agents, aligning with the national push for AI readiness. The course aims to transform AI from a buzzword into a practical workplace capability.
The six-week programme offers 24 hours of live, practitioner-led lessons, complemented by guided labs and mentorship from active AI engineers. Participants will learn to design, build, test, and deploy autonomous AI agents capable of automating tasks across various domains such as research, operations, and customer engagement. The curriculum focuses on the plan, act, and reflect loop, enabling students to understand decision-making processes and real-time tool orchestration.
Targeted at mid-career professionals aged 25 to 45, the course includes complimentary access to Manus AI’s sandbox and involves real business challenges. Participants will graduate with a Workforce Skills Qualifications (WSQ) Certificate, a nationally recognised credential. Course fees can be offset using SkillsFuture Credits, with additional support options available for eligible participants.
Beh Min Yan, CEO and co-founder of Heicoders Academy, stated, “GA100 is designed for practitioners – learners don’t just learn about AI agents; they build and apply them to solve real business challenges.” Zhang Tao, co-founder of Manus AI, added, “By putting Manus AI directly in the classroom, professionals get hands-on with the planning, acting, and orchestration patterns that matter in real environments.”
This partnership underscores Singapore’s commitment to becoming a regional hub for agentic AI, with Manus AI having relocated its global headquarters to Singapore in July 2025.
