Ahhuat 1st Gear October 6, 2008 Share October 6, 2008 I am indeed keen if u can provide me with the names of your friends and also the ministry that they belong too. Case in point is my wife. She is with MOE. Nope, they do not recognize the Bradford degree. It has been a good 6 years of slogging with Diploma payscale. Hope u can furnish me with the data. I will be taking this up with the relevant authorities again. Quote BTW, MDIS is NOT RECOGNIZED by the gahment. My wife has a degree from Bradford... nope, it is worthless. End can you qualify your statement with examples, what leads you to conclude that bradford degree is worthless. i have friends in the civil service with this degree on a graduate payscale for a list of approved universities, ask your wife to go to the MOE intranet. also, for the purpose of future degrees etc, it would be wise to check the list of approved universities before embarking on the degree. these days, at least they publish the list. i heard that back then it was like "you go do first, we decide if we want to give it recognition or not later on..." ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Familymanz 3rd Gear October 6, 2008 Share October 6, 2008 MDIS is solely weekday classes, whereas PSA and even Kaplan has 1 of the class days during the weekends... So far all institutions has classes and tutorials and no online studying... Now printing the syallabus out to compare... why didnt consider UniSIM?

End can you qualify your statement with examples, what leads you to conclude that bradford degree is worthless. i have friends in the civil service with this degree on a graduate payscale I did a check a couple of years back on this. PSC (Public Service Commission) chap informed me that all state universities belonging to commonwealth countries are recognised. Only selected American universities are recognised (have to check with them cos they maintain a list). AND my friends with Degrees from Bradford and UOL are in the civil service also - just name some one is a manager with the Elections Dept and another 2 are with the Singapore Police Force. If you want their names PM me. (BTW i was with the civil service previously) I don't know if your wife is aware of it. BUT MOE is very sticky with degrees unlike other ministries. For example, I took the poly path and graduated from Aust (studied full time in UWA) was on dean's list and graduated with honours. Apply for MOE and MINDEF together with my wife (NUS normal degree) - MOE didn't get even an interview but my wife was called up, i was informed I didn't meet the cut... MINDEF - went for IQ test, etc and was offered a job...but my wife was informed that she was not shortlisted... In addition, from my experience for a conversion of scheme a lot is at play...for example CEP (Current estimated potential), performance, etc...so a lot of pple (esp my friends in SPF) didn't meet the cut albeit having a degree... my guess is your wife's performance is somewhat not up to their mark (paisay) It would actually be easier if she resigned and apply for a graduate post with another ministry... NB: my two cents...paisay if i offended u.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
