Learner experience

If you learn best by doing and experiencing, our unique 'Hands-on, Minds-on, Hearts-on'™ education is the way to go for you! We have a nurturing environment and caring lecturers to help you rediscover the joy of learning.

Unique ‘Hands-on, Minds-on, Hearts-on™’ College Education

Our holistic education aims to give you an all-round development through:

• Hands-on training to equip you with employable skill sets

• Minds-on learning to develop you into an independent-thinking and highly adaptable individual

• Hearts-on learning to nurture you into a person who has passion for what you do, has self-belief and who cares for the community and society

As an ITE student, you’ll get to practise what you have learnt. We integrate theory with practice through coursework, industry exposure, projects and experiential learning. Our aim is for you to become an all-rounded 'Career-Ready, Life-Ready and World-Ready' graduate.

Real world, Real work learning

Nothing beats learning from real life professionals. ITE’s courses are designed, in close consultation with industry, to ensure that you are equipped with work-ready skills relevant to changing industry needs when you graduate.

Industry internship is a key part of our technical education. You’ll spend three to six months in industry to gain valuable real work experience and important life skills through the Enhanced Internship Programme under the 'Campus@Workplace' approach. Our Lecturers will be constantly in touch with you, to ensure the success of your internship experience.

We work with industry to create authentic learning environments and facilities to mimic the ‘real world’ future workplace within our Colleges. Through collaboration with industry partners, we have set up various learning facilities like the Healthcare Simulation Training Centre@College East, Amber | West Training Restaurant, and Aerospace Hub@College Central. To make learning more engaging, we have introduced innovative ways of teaching and learning, through immersive AR and VR technology to simulate authentic industry environment that is difficult to physically simulate within campuses (e.g. offshore oil rig platform, aircraft/airport) . This is what we call our ‘Workplace@Campus’ learning approach.

Student life – It’s not all work and no play!

You’ll also enjoy a comprehensive range of learning facilities, such as high-tech learning spaces and digital learning approaches in our modern workshops and laboratories.

For amenities, we provide sports and recreational centres (gym, stadium and swimming pools), and performing arts studios and theatres.
