Dr Jane shared in her speech that the history of KLCII was not just about its training courses.
“….. it’s really about its people – the story of its leaders’ vision of providing quality preschool education and training for as many as we can reach; a story of personal as well as professional ties with key partners who built upon this shared vision of its leaders.
“It is a story of the wonderful friendships forged with collaborators, both government and businesses, to accomplish common goals. It is a story of how KLCII became an integral part of the early childhood quality and professional development masterplan in Singapore,” said Dr Jane.
She said that with the encouragement and support from Enterprise Singapore, KLCII has begun moving beyond our own shores, taking steady steps in countries like Malaysia, Indonesia, China and soon, the greater ASEAN region.
Dr Jane also shared KLCII’s plans to roll out digital training initiatives in 2019. “What matters is the future,” she added.
