Private Education Act
The Private Education Act was gazetted in October 2009 to strengthen the registration framework and enforcement provisions. The Act also provided for the Council for Private Education to be set up to oversee the new regulatory regime and promote best practices among private education institutions to raise standards in the private education sector over time.
EduTrust Certification Scheme
The EduTrust certification scheme was formed to regulate, develop and raise quality standards in the private education sector.
Fee Protection Scheme
The Fee Protection Scheme (FPS) serves to protect students' fees in the event education institution is unable to continue operating due to insolvency, and/or regulatory closure. The Fee Protection Scheme also protects if the private education institution fails to pay penalties or return fees to the students arising from judgement made against it by the Singapore courts.
The FPS is compulsory for all local and international students taking courses at PEIs seeking EduTrust certification. Students enrolled in these courses will be required to pay a fee for FPS which varies depending on the fees of the courses insured.
We have appointed Longpac Insurance Bhd under FPS.
