CITREP+: Who Qualifies and What You Get

Learn how Singaporean citizens and PRs can receive significant funding to cover the costs of professional IT certifications and training.

CITREP+ is a funding scheme designed to help professionals upgrade their skills by subsidising the cost of IT-related training and certifications.

Who it's for

This scheme is available to Singaporeans and Permanent Residents who are looking to take professional IT certification courses.

What you get

You can receive funding to cover up to 70% of the fees for your professional IT certification and training programs.

What it costs you

You must apply for your funding before you begin your course. You will need to manage the administrative process of applying to ensure your eligibility is confirmed before you start studying.

The catch to know

This is a reimbursement-based scheme. This means you must pay the full cost of your training and certification upfront, and you will be paid back after the process is complete.

How to apply

  1. Check that your chosen IT certification is eligible under the scheme.
  2. Submit your application for funding before you start your training.
  3. Pay the full course fees upfront.
  4. Complete your certification and follow the reimbursement steps.
