The duration of a SCTP at SITLEARN typically ranges from four (4) to six (6) months, depending on the specific programme’s topic, curriculum and its requirements.

While our SCTP provides career preparation and employment facilitation support to help you in your job search, it does not guarantee job placements. You are encouraged to be proactive in seeking out and applying for job opportunities.

Minimum academic qualifications may be required for some SCTPs. You will be assessed by our SITLEARN admission committee on your suitability for the programme you apply for.
