MOE enhances Continuing Education and Training

Level of subsidies for Singaporean adults who pursue their first degree or diploma on a part-time basis has also been raised.

According to the Ministry of Education, they will increase training capacity at Singapore’s polytechnics and the Institute of Technical Education, as well as introduce revised CET programmes that are customised to the needs of adult learners.

The polytechnics have also revised their part-time Diploma programmes to be more compact and modular to cater to the needs of working adults. Course durations for the revised part-time Diploma programmes have been halved, from five years (1,800 hours) to approximately two and a half years (900 hours) without compromising quality.

MOE said that with the revised framework, most part-time polytechnic Diploma programmes will now be offered as five distinct modular certificates of about 180 training hours each, allowing an adult learner to customise the pace of his or her own learning.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
