2018 Skills-Based Modular Courses
Description
Ngee Ann Polytechnic catalogue of the skills-based modular courses it offered in 2018, listing the year, course name, course description, and a reference source for each entry. These modular courses are short, stackable units of training rather than full diploma programmes, and are typically aimed at working adults pursuing continuing education in Singapore. Read alongside the polytechnic's listings for other years, the dataset shows how its adult training menu was composed at that point. Analysts of workforce upskilling, adult learning provision, and the SkillsFuture ecosystem use it to survey the subject areas on offer.
