Beyond expertise and know-how, organisations today are looking for employees who can think and act critically to identify new opportunities. Workers must also be able to communicate effectively and adapt to change and complexity.
As a lifelong learning partner, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore) provides alumni and adult learners multiple pathways to improve their skills and knowledge, as well as meet the demands of an increasingly competitive global landscape.
At the heart of this is the NTU Centre for Professional and Continuing Education (PACE), which plays a crucial role coordinating with SkillsFuture Singapore, the Ministry of Education and various NTU entities to promote continuing education and groom smart learners.
Drawing on NTU’s world-renowned faculty and strong industry connections, PACE has developed a wide range of programmes curated from various disciplines and conducted across different learning platforms.
Tie-ups with companies such as DBS, Global Compact Network Singapore, PwC Singapore, WTW, as well as course providers such as Marshall Cavendish Education, have helped to design specialised courses that are in tune with industry demands. NTU also develops curricula with professional associations such as the Institute of Valuers and Appraisers, Singapore and Institute for Human Resource Professionals, and government bodies such as the Ministry of Defence.
