Abstract

This chapter presents a case study of how an air service provider (Evergreen, pseudonym) in Singapore builds an adult education ecosystem with strong partnerships to promote the wellbeing of its badly hit aviation workforce during the Covid-19 pandemic. It illustrates how Evergreen envisions changes and pushes the boundaries by actively establishing partnerships with the institutes of high learning, the government agencies, industry associations, and training partners, and at the same time building a learning culture for a resilient workforce. Everygreen turns Covid-19 from a risk into opportunities to strengthen partnerships with high levels of trust, commitment, and open participation. This is accomplished in part by co-creation of learning materials, experiences, and environments with partners with a focus on resilience and sustainability. The findings identify important qualities that can be established as best practices for organisations and policy makers to further improve their adult education provision and promote the wellbeing of their workforce.
