Centre for Professional Development

The primary aim of the Centre for Professional Development (CPD) is to promote life-long learning among working adults so that they can stay relevant in the current knowledge-based economy.

CPD offers a suite of Continuing Education & Training (CET) programmes, ranging from personal interest and self-improvement to job specific training. The CET certificate and diploma programmes are specially designed to help working adults upgrade their work skills or prepare for career transitions.

The key features of Republic Polytechnic’s (RP) CET programmes include the use of well researched pedagogical practices and learner-centred approaches, and strong links with industry partners to ensure relevance to current practices and the latest technological advancements. The CET programmes are also well structured to accommodate the busy schedules of working adults.

In addition to public courses, CPD is also actively working with its corporate clients to understand their training needs and developing training solutions to help them achieve their business objectives. Given RP’s wide range of expertise, CPD is able to offer both generic as well as industry specific and highly specialised training programmes.

The CET scheme is supported by an online registration and administration system available on the Internet.
