This 4-module, university foundation programme is designed to help the young executive redefine himself/herself and their role in a business in a post-COVID world. Our 4 step approach is the ideal basis for progression towards a strong career built on sound higher-education principles.
Module 1: We begin with the individual. Understand that not all fish were meant to climb trees. What are your in-born abilities and talents and then maximize and work on those. We use a set of copyrighted personal development techniques to direct your career, understand personal motivations, and define your core learning styles. This will be the building blocks of your career and higher education success.
Module 2: SME or MNC? Set your career in the right direction by understanding the pros and cons of each of these major company-types. There is no perfect decision but as a young professional we explore the challenges of each company-type and help plot our individual futures in each.
Module 3: What does Management Do Anyway? Such a great question. 😂 We answer why ‘business’ is never just ‘business’. What is the purpose of ‘management’ and what departments do. This module also begins the question on what do we want our careers to look like?
Module 4: The borderless big picture of a digital economy. When we venture online in business, reality becomes greatly distorted. This module covers the world of economics and geo-politics and how the internet has removed barriers of trade and vendor sourcing, yet has to deal with countries fighting to maintain their borders for tax. Welcome to the real-world.

After discussing with several stakeholders, it was clear that there are 2 common goals for students and working professionals who wish to become accounting professionals:
Here is the truth for both of these routes. To become a Chartered Accountant in Singapore is a long route with many paths to the top. Read about your options first. You will realize that CA-Singapore is a postgraduate pursuit meaning it is something most likely completed AFTER your degree programmes. Secondly, to earn a degree in accountancy is good – but it is not essential at the start. In fact sometimes having ACCA passes in F 1/2/3 is too little but F1 to F9 is a lot. Furthermore you may not get the job you expect due to gaps between academic theory and the real working world.
Our Diploma is well placed to ensure you cover a sufficient variety of academic content as well as practical skills for the business environment.
Participants can expect to progress onward to roles such as:
