A New Career in the Infocomm Industry ….

For those who are interested to make a career switch to the Infocomm industry, this is a unique opportunity not to be missed. G.Dip.ICT is a part-time conversion programme that provides a platform for non-ICT professionals to equip themselves with the essential technical skills and knowledge in ICT. The next intake of this programme will commence in Jan 2008.

The Need to Train & Retrain ….

Singapore is currently grappling with the problem of structural unemployment, where jobs are available but there are insufficient skilled people to take on these jobs. In particular, there is a lack of trained professionals for the ICT industry. Furthermore, to cope with the rapid pace of change in the Infocomm industry, it is important for ICT professionals to train and re-train to stay relevant and to equip themselves with up-to-date technical competencies in order to succeed in the competitive global Internet economy.
