Corporate Training

Training and development has entered a new era. More and more companies are recognizing the link between effective workforce training and development and increased productivity and competitiveness; individuals the world over are beginning to identify the relationship between their education, their continuing development and their overall career aspirations and are taking positive action to maximize their potential and employability; and as we move into a new global society, we all recognize the erosion of the traditional skill-based market and the new reliance upon information and knowledge for success.

As one of the world’s largest training companies, we understand that this is never more accurate than in Singapore. And we should know; Kaplan is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Washington Post Group, making us truly a global organization and best placed in terms of resources and information to make such a judgment.

For ease, this section of the website has been divided broadly into a range of products that serve to meet the wider objectives of the Singapore market.

Our Management Development Programme has been designed to target the specific needs of managers in this new competitive society. We are aware that new managers are often promoted because of their skills or knowledge in their particular fields. Very often, the most successful managers are those who are able to identify that being a good practitioner does not automatically mean that they will be a good manager and they seek to close the gaps in the knowledge and skills.
