Explore our suite of stackable certificate programmes (micro-credentials) that have been created to meet the needs of learners at different stages of their lives and careers.
Certificate programmes span in-demand areas such as data science, marketing and communications, business management, public policy, engineering and social sciences.
If you wish to learn in a flexible manner, but also want to stack your credentials into a full-degree qualification, you may opt for a Specialist Certificate (undergraduate), Executive Certificate (post-graduate) or Graduate Certificate (post-graduate).
For those looking for industry-relevant skills that can be applied immediately to your job, there are Professional Certificates. You may also stack selected Professional Certificates you have obtained into an Advanced Professional Certificate.
- Take up just one course in a certificate, or
- Complete all requisite courses to earn a certificate, or
- Stack certificates to earn a higher qualification.
The flexibility allows people to take on a course or certificate that’s suitable for their aspirations, without feeling stressed about the long-term commitment. That’s what I did – I took on my first Graduate Certificate in Child Health, found it very applicable to my work, and took up a second one to stack into a Graduate Diploma.
I appreciate the after-office hours sessions, and the training by industry experts who often share relatable advice on overcoming work challenges. I highly recommend others to take up these stackable courses.
