NOTE

As AI and emerging technologies continue to reshape industries and transform workforce skill requirements, we are refreshing our programme portfolio to ensure our offerings remain relevant, responsive, and aligned with evolving industry needs.

As outlined on our website since December 2025, the Advanced Professional Certificate (APC) and Professional Certificate (PC) programmes will be phased out by June 2026. As part of this transition, we are developing and introducing new courses and learning opportunities to help learners acquire the skills needed to thrive in a rapidly changing environment. A selected number of existing individual courses will also continue to be offered.
