Do Make Plans!!!

As stated in my earlier blog, the 1st batch of the ICT students will be graduating soon. I am a little worried for them, even though most of them shown not much concern for their future. To me, I worry about where they will proceed after completing their 2 years of studies. Sad to say, from the result that I had seen, many will not be able to progress to Poly. Then what? Will they be able to move on to Higher Nitec? I am not sure of that either. So, is this going to be the end of the road for them?

To me, if they stop here and enter the workforce, it is not to their benefits, as what they have is not sufficient to help them to survive in this world. How then?

The following are a few alternatives which I hope will help all those who read. May or may not work, will depends very much on each individual.

Firstly, if you can go Poly, DON’T MISS THIS CHANCE IF YOU QUALIFY!

Secondly, apply for Higher Nitec, if you cannot go to poly. Though you may spend another year studying, but at least you may have an opportunity to progress to poly if you do well in your studies.

If not, then try doing taking private “O” level, this may give you the chance to proceed to poly.

A final alternative is to take commercial school certification. Try taking diploma from reputable commercial schools such as MDIS, Informatics etc

The above are just suggestions and you may probably come up with more alternatives. Do share them if you have any other so that all can benefits.

My sincere desire is that all of you will move on further in life and not stop just with a Nitec Cert. Hopefully one day I will see one of you as famous as Sim Wong Hoo, you know who he is? If not then go check out about him!
