MESSAGE FROM THE PRINCIPAL

Welcome to ITE College East – A College of Innovation and Enterprise. In this handbook, it is my pleasure to share with you our education philosophy, our vision, our core values and our commitment towards excellence in technical education.

At ITE College East, we are committed to providing all our students with a holistic educational experience in a conducive and supportive campus environment. Besides technology and technical skills, you will be given opportunities to discover your strengths, talents and unique abilities so as to help you grow and develop into confident individuals who are ready to take on new challenges. Three core messages encompassing the following themes of Value to Self, Value to Industry and Value to Society represent the key ideals that we aim to inculcate in all our students.

As we strive to maximise the educational opportunities to our students, we have established linkages with overseas institutions where some of you will be able to participate in overseas exchanges and industrial attachments. Such learning experiences, which allow you to be exposed to foreign culture and work styles, will be assets to you as you meet exciting career challenges of tomorrow.

With our state-of-the-art facilities, there are abundant opportunities for you to develop your various interests, be it in sports, arts, community work or entrepreneurship. As you embark on this wonderful learning journey with us, I wish you a very fruitful and enjoyable time in ITE College East.
