Competency-Driven Education
FROM THE INDUSTRY, FOR THE INDUSTRY
We believe that education serves the purpose of equipping you to succeed and live a fulfilling life. Therefore, our programs are thoughtfully designed to maximise the effectiveness of your learning, improvement, mastery, and potential.
The Building Blocks of your Learning
In order to nurture work-ready, future-ready and global-ready, life-ready students, our programmes utilise the following building blocks and innovative learning methods.
Mastery of digital competencies
In our student-centric competency based education, knowledge is only the beginning. Every single lesson is paired with practical/applied learning and strong support from mentors to ensure your steady progress in mastering highly-applicable digital competencies.
From industry, For industry
Our programs draw upon industry insights & resources to develop you into highly-capable & readily-productive digital talents. We also involve industry experts during curriculum planning, review, and teaching to craft & deliver programs which match the industry’s needs and direction.
Work-based applied learning
During our unique 1+3 Bachelor’s degree, you will go through 1 year of intensive class-based learning to equip you with comprehensive knowledge and skills. The next 3 years will be primarily work-based learning where you have the opportunity to practise your skills and become highly competent in your chosen digital specialty.
