Exploring Diploma Courses: Your Pathway to Success

ITE offers Diplomas!

We have two types of diploma programmes: Work-Study Diplomas and Technical Diplomas. These programmes fulfil the aspirations of our Nitec and Higher Nitec graduates for academic and career progression. Currently, we have more than 40 Work-Study Diplomas and six Technical Diplomas.

ITE Work-Study Diplomas

The ITE Work-Study Diploma is a work-and-study arrangement that gives trainees a head start in the workplace. They become employees of the companies, and are trained by certified and experienced mentors. Trainees also undergo an off-the-job learning component, where they are coached by ITE Lecturers. The core benefits of the ITE Work-Study Diploma are that trainees earn a salary throughout the 2.5-year programme, and gain real work experience, which prepares them well for employment.

ITE Technical Diplomas

The ITE Technical Diploma is a full-time programme that lasts between 2 to 2.5 years. ITE partners with prestigious institutions from countries like France, Germany, Hong Kong, and Switzerland to offer these courses. The ITE Technical Diploma is jointly certified by ITE and its international partners, giving graduates a globally -recognised qualification. The programme includes opportunities for student exchanges and industrial attachments, enhancing both the learning experience and career prospects.


These Diploma programmes focus on hands-on training, which allows students to continue with the applied learning style they have enjoyed at ITE. Graduates from ITE’s diploma programmes experience excellent employment outcomes and may also pursue further studies at local universities.
