The Approved Training Centre (ATC)
scheme allows you to train your employees in-house,
in skills leading to nationally recognised ITE certifications.
The ATC status is valid for a period of up to 3 years
and is meant for you to train your employees who are
Singaporeans, Permanent Residents or Foreign Workers
on valid work permits/employment passes.
Thus, if your company needs to train a sizeable number
of employees and has the necessary infrastructure
to conduct training and testing in-house, then the
ATC scheme is the right solution to meet your manpower
development requirements.
Depending on your requirements, you may conduct training
in one or more of the following training modes:
• Full-Time
Your employees will attend theory and practical lessons
on a full-time basis for the full duration of the
prescribed curriculum hours.
• Part-Time
Your employees will attend theory and practical lessons
on a part-time basis, based on an ITE-approved training
pattern and duration.
• Traineeship
Your employees will attend formalised training comprising
on-the-job training (OJT) and off-the-job training
for a duration specified by ITE. The terms and conditions
of training will be governed by a Traineeship Agreement
and to be signed among your company, the trainee and
his surety.
