From Technician/Technologist …Engineer : Challenges & Opportunities

Many years ago : GCE(O) Poly Diploma CEI/EC(UK) Exam CEng(UK)

Today: GCE(O) Poly Diploma NUS/NTU PE(S) or

CEng(UK) GCE(O) Poly Diploma UK- ‘Top-up’ First Degree in

Engineering in Singapore IEng(UK) MSc(Eng) CEng(UK)

GCE(O) Poly Diploma Australia- ‘Top-up’ First Degree in Engineering in Singapore MIEAust, CPEng


From Technician/Technologist …Engineer : Challenges & Opportunities

What are the ‘Challenges’? Less ‘talented’ school leavers taking up

Engineering as a Career/Profession. Existing Engineering graduates left the

Profession. More ‘barriers’ for young engineers to become

qualified engineers.


Case (1) : From O-level failure to Top Chef [Source : ST – 23 December 2013]

Mr Edmund Toh flunked his O-level exams in 1976, passing two of five subjects.

Today, the 53-year runs Singapore’s largest banquet kitchen at Resorts World Sentosa (RWS), heading a crew of 600 chefs and cooks.
