In alignment with the Private Education Act 2009, a Committee for Private Education (CPE) has been established in Singapore to regulate the private education sector. All Private Education Institutes (PEIs) are required to comply with the regulations under the new Act in order to operate. Through the CPE, schools are invited to apply for EduTrust certification. EduTrust is a voluntary certification scheme that helps to distinguish higher quality educational institutions in Singapore’s private education industry. Private Education Institutions (PEIs) need to be EduTrust certified before being able to offer placement for international students who require Student Passes from the Immigration and Checkpoints Authority (ICA). AIS is registered as a Private Education Institute by the Committee for Private Education. CPE Registration Number 199204405H, registration period 6 July 2019 to 5 July 2023. AIS has also fulfilled the requirements under the EduTrust terms and conditions. Certificate number EDU-2-2037.
Fee Protection Scheme insurance – Protection of Course Fees:
Course fees paid by students are protected in the form of fee protection schemes and fee collection caps. If a PEI is unable to continue operating, the protection scheme protects the unconsumed course fees paid by students while the fee protection caps limits the amount of course fee that the PEI had collected at any one time.
