Overview

SSI’S learning philosophy is guided by the Education Innovation (EI) initiative. This initiative is based on the following beliefs:

• In addition to classroom learning, informal and social learning is as important for the development of specific skills and expertise.
• Learning can happen anytime and anywhere
• Technology is a key enabler in the learning process.

As part of this initiative, SSI is transforming learning in the social service and non-profit sector through the use of various new learning methodologies that have been made possible by technology. This has resulted in the creation of new and enriching learning experiences.

Training Programmes

The training programmes offered by SSI can be segregated into ten course categories. Although each course category is segregated into specific sub-sectors or fields within the social service sector, learners should adopt a horizontal learning approach and undertake relevant courses across different course categories to have a well balanced set of skills for their job role.
