- In the Singapore Armed Forces (SAF), specialists are the group of ranks equivalent to non-commissioned officers in other armed forces. This term was introduced in 1993, for a more "positive" rank classification and shorter waiting time for WOSPEC (Warrant Officers and Specialists) career soldiers' rank advancements. In the SAF, warrant officers are not considered specialists. Like many other modern militaries, the specialist corps forms the backbone of the military. Specialists are the supervisors for the training and discipline of the enlisted men, and as well as the supervisors in the use of weapons and equipment, drill and ceremonies. The following ranks are specialist ranks:
* Specialist cadet (SCT)
* Third sergeant (3SG)
* Second sergeant (2SG)
* First sergeant (1SG)
* Staff sergeant (SSG)
* Master sergeant (MSG) Senior specialists may be promoted to warrant officer ranks, through attending the Joint Warrant Officers Course at the SAFWOS Leadership School. In the new scheme, they need to first go through the rank of third warrant officer, which is usually attained just before or after they go through the warfighter course from the Specialist and Warrant Officer Advanced School. With the SAFWOS Leadership School, Specialist and Warrant Officer Advanced School and Specialist Cadet School, Pasir Laba Camp, site of the former Singapore Armed Forces Training Institute (SAFTI) is the new home of the warrant officer and specialist corps of the SAF.
