The Employees Retraining Board (ERB) is an independent statutory body established in 1992 under the Employees Retraining Ordinance. The ERB co-ordinates, funds and monitors training courses and services that are market driven and employment-oriented so as to meet the changing needs of the employment market.

The Smart Living Scheme administered by the Employees Retraining Board (ERB) has all along been well received. With over 500,000 job vacancy registrations on a cumulative basis, it is the largest and most experienced platform for job-matching and job referral services for employers as well as the graduate trainees of related courses offered by the ERB.
