Key milestones in ITE's transformation.

Last updated 27 August 2025

The Institute of Technical Education (ITE) was established as a post-secondary institution, under the Ministry of Education (MOE), to take over the functions of the Vocational and Industrial Training Board (VITB) in April 1992.

Since then, ITE has transformed itself to become the principal provider of Career and Technical Education in Singapore. We continue to strive for excellence and became the first Education Institution to win the Singapore Quality Award (SQA) in 2005 and the SQA (with Special Commendation) (SQA SC) in 2011. In 2018, we became one of only two Public Agencies to receive the SQA SC for a second time.

In 2022, we celebrated our 30-year journey of ‘Inspiration, Transformation and Excellence’, and we launched our 7th strategic plan, ITE Elevate, in 2025.
