Learning is a continuous process, and one is never too old to discover new skills. Some learning programmes that the Community Development Councils have organised to promote a culture of lifelong learning amongst residents are as follows:

1. IT Programmes
The National IT Literacy Programme (NITLP) is a national initiative to provide IT training to Singapore Citizens at a highly subsidised rate. Targeted at workers, homemakers and senior citizens, the programme will equip trainees with basic computing and internet skills that will improve their quality of life and enhance the workers' employability. The Community Development Councils are offering these IT programmes to their residents.

2. Community Arts Appreciation
Some of the Community Development Councils, like Central Singapore and South East Community Development Councils organise Community Arts Appreciation programmes to cultivate community support for the arts.

3. Read and Reach Programme
Organised by the Central Singapore Community Development Council, the programme involves a group of youths reading and updating senior citizens on news or schemes that benefit the senior citizens.
