Why Our Partners are On Board
Rostam UmarChief, Strategy Group, Sport SingaporeI am highly supportive of this initiative to introduce the Professional Competency Model (PCM). Conceptually, I see the PCM as a positive way forward, offering a good mix of breadth and depth to better equip and prepare learners for the workforce in the future. The way real-world problems are approached and tackled is multi-disciplinary.

Nicholas TeoDirector, Team AxisThe introduction of the PCM to this diploma ensures that students remain adaptable in this ever-changing and dynamic economic environment. Through this programme, learners can experience the many facets and opportunities within the sport and wellness industry and discover what truly drives their passion. With the integration of both business and sport/wellness within the curriculum, learners will be well-prepared to enter the workforce and contribute to the industry. I will be happy to explore work opportunities with the graduates of this diploma.
Mark ChayDirector of Administration, Global Esports FederationI congratulate Nanyang Polytechnic for introducing the PCM to this course. The curriculum will enable learners to be more agile, especially to the changing requirements of the industry. Learners will be more adept at responding to the consumption of sport and providing in-demand services based on the volatile demands of the consumers. The PCM provides learners with the necessary skills and competencies to succeed in the industry.
