Living up to its aim of preparing our graduates for life and work, the School of Business Management Industrial Placement Programme (IPP) provides students in their final year with a 10-week attachment to a business organisation. The main objective of the Industrial Placement Programme is to help ensure our students are exposed to the real working world and to prepare them for ready absorption into the workforce after graduation. This IPP exposure will also provide them the practical work exposure and enable them to acquire the required skills to contribute effectively to the business and commerce section of our economy.

A cohort of some 400 students from the following Diplomas will be available for attachment twice a year.

• Diploma in Accountancy and Finance
• Diploma in Business Management
• Diploma in Banking & Financial Services
• Diploma in Marketing
• Diploma in Sport and Wellness Management

The main attachment periods are Feb-April and Aug to October, a duration of 10 weeks each.

Through its extensive networks with industry, our students are placed out to companies spanning the service, telecommunications, retail, manufacturing, financial services and IT sectors. The experience and exposure our students obtain through the industrial placement programme will stand them in good stead when they enter the workforce. IPP will also enable students to put what they have learnt in the classrooms into practice as students will not only make use of their technical knowledge, example business accounting, but also the soft skills like communications and customer relationship management.

Interested companies who wish to offer value-add attachment training for our students can contact Mrs Gina Weers at 6550 1242 or email to Gina_WEERS@nyp.gov.sg and also Ms Chew Su Hwei at 6550 1081 or e-mail to CHEW_Su_Hwei@nyp.gov.sg for details of the Industrial Placement Programme.
