Suspension of Kaplan Professional's Singapore Workforce Skills Qualifications Approved Training Organisation Status
In December 2018, Kaplan Professional was suspended from delivering
courses under the Leadership and People Management WSQ framework for six
months.
In March 2019, SSG conducted further investigations and audit checks
into Kaplan Professional’s delivery of other WSQ courses. In view of the
serious lapses by Kaplan Professional, SSG has decided to suspend its
ATO status, which means it cannot offer any WSQ course during the
suspension period from 1 July 2019 to 30 June 2020.
Kaplan Professional is expected to teach out learners enrolled in WSQ
courses which will be completed by 30 June 2019. For individuals whose
enrolled courses were scheduled to commence after 30 June 2019, Kaplan
Professional is required to place them with other WSQ ATOs to minimise
disruption in their learning. Individuals seeking alternative
arrangements can contact Kaplan Professional.
SSG takes a serious view of any individual, training provider or
organisation which does not adhere to our guidelines for WSQ delivery,
and will not hesitate to act against those who contravene our
guidelines. This is necessary to maintain the quality of WSQ courses. We
welcome the public to give us feedback at ssg.gov.sg/feedback if you come across such individuals, training providers or organisations.
