CITREP+ COURSES

Critical Infocomm Technology Resource Programme (CITREP+)

CITREP+ supports local professionals in keeping pace with technology shifts through continuous and proactive training. Through continuous up-skilling, fresh professionals and mid-career professionals may acquire or enhance technical skills sets which will enable them to remain relevant and productive in their careers.

To build a strong core of ICT professionals with Smart Nation capabilities, CITREP+ is now expanded to support entry-level professionals since April 2016 to build specialised ICT skills through broad-based training courses and certifications.

IMDA will work with training providers to curate and offer quality infocomm professional development courses and certifications that impart knowledge and skills in relevant technology areas.
