Singtel launches new scholarship programme for poly students: todayonline.com

A new diploma scholarship programme developed with Singapore Polytechnic (SP) and Republic Polytechnic (RP) was introduced by SingTel today (Jan 6).



Worth over S$2 million a year, the SingTel Cadet Scholarship Programme — the telco’s first diploma scholarship — will be offered in the areas of Network Engineering and Cyber Security in SP and Customer Experience in RP.




The programme will have 90 scholarships available each year to top students across these three courses in the two polytechnics.

Recognising that these principles are replicable in many industries and other companies, Mr Heng said he hoped more employers will step forward to develop programmes to best suit their needs.



“I hope many more employers will step forward to be part of this journey. Think ahead of your future needs; work closely with our educational institutions; break the boundary between the workplace and the classroom; and put your people first,” he said.
