Singapore Management University (SMU) has launched an advanced full certificate programme in insurtech with TechFin Consulting to upskill working professionals and undergraduates.
With trainers hailing from Singapore’s fintech community and homegrown insurtech firm PolicyPal, SMU’s professional training arm SMU Academy will roll out the course from July 2021.
SMU Academy will roll out the programme in two alternatives; those interested can sign up for a 1-day introductory course or a more in-depth 12-day full certificate programme.
Upon successful completion of the latter, an advanced certificate would be jointly issued by SMU Academy and TechFin Consulting.
Both the 1-day course and 12-day certificate programme are funded by SkillsFuture Singapore, with up to 90% subsidy on course fees.
