Connect sessions are mandatory weekly sessions with a Udacity Session Lead to track progress, work through technical blockers and work on relevant case studies together. These sessions are a great opportunity to network, build connections and stay on track to graduate on time. 

Applicants may apply to withdraw from the programme with proof of valid reasons (eg. Medical emergency), subject to approval by Temasek Polytechnic.  The withdrawal fee will be chargeable based on the effective date of withdrawal as shown in the table below. We strongly advise applicants who are unsure of their availability to complete the course in this current intake to defer their application to the next intake. 

You can study on your own schedule so long as you complete the course within 3 months and complete the projects within the recommended deadlines to maintain your scholarship status. That is to say, you’ll have complete access to the course directly in your classroom 24 hours a day. Your Session Leads are available to you to help you stay on track and solve your technical blockers in any way. 

This is a fully online programme with live virtual connect sessions. Throughout the cohort, students get to learn through online videos in their classroom and interact with peers, coaches, and instructors on their community platform and in their weekly Connect Sessions.

The programme takes place 100% online. You can work from wherever you want to, as long as you have a working internet connection. To complement the learner’s learning experience, there will be weekly virtual sessions conducted led by a Udacity instructor. These sessions are mandatory. 

Students who fail to progress (by completing their projects in time) and plagiarize their work will be reviewed by Temasek Polytechnic. He/She may be removed from the programme and be required to pay the full course fee.

The programme offers two types of programmes:

Nanodegree Programmes:

Duration: Nanodegree programmes are more comprehensive and typically span several months.
Depth of Learning: They provide in-depth knowledge and hands-on experience in specific fields such as data science, programming, artificial intelligence, etc.
Project-Based: Emphasis is placed on real-world projects, allowing learners to apply concepts in practical scenarios.
Mentorship: Nanodegree programmes often include mentorship opportunities, providing learners with guidance and support.
Certification: Successful completion results in a Nanodegree credential, indicating mastery in the chosen subject, certified by Temasek Polytechnic and Udacity. 

Advanced Short Courses:

Duration: Short courses are more condensed and can be completed within 4 weeks.
Depth of Learning: They cover specific topics or skills without comprehensive depth and are designed for targeted and focused learning on a particular skill or concept.
Self-Paced: While still providing flexibility, short courses are generally more self-paced compared to Nanodegree programmes.
Certification: Completion of a short course results in a certificate or acknowledgment, certified by Temasek Polytechnic and Udacity. 

Students who have been accepted into the programme must be committed to the programme timelines specified. Should you experience any unforeseen circumstances, please contact knowitgetit@tp.edu.sg and we will determine your eligibility for a refund on a case by case basis.

Should you have any questions at all, you can reach out to the programme’s dedicated support email knowitgetit@tp.edu.sg. 

Students will have the opportunity to work on real-world projects designed by industry experts to build their portfolio of skills and learn one of four core skill sets to prepare them for a career in a job of the future.

The programme will launch on May 17, 2023. Learners will be invited to join a live webinar "Kickoff" event to cover the details of the programme and join a cohort with their peers to start their Nanodegree that day.

Between instructional content, quizzes, projects, and other course-related activities, we recommend allocating 10-15 hours a week for learning.

The knowITgetIT programme consists of a 3-month, self-guided learning journey with the rest of the knowITgetIT cohort. Throughout your entire learning journey, you will have access to an online community platform, where you will get to ask other students and Session Leads for support to help you through any learning difficulties or even to network!

Unfortunately, this is not possible as you will only be accepted in one Nanodegree programme only at a time. We recommend that you apply for the Nanodegree programme you are most interested in and after you graduate you can apply to other Nanodegree programmes in the future cohorts if the programme is still available.

Candidates who are Singapore Citizens are all welcome to apply. Students must meet the technical requirements specified here in order to qualify for the Nanodegree. 

Applications open on March 17, 2023, and will close on April 28,2023.

KnowITgetIT is a highly subsidized program by SkillsFuture. Fees range from S$1,300.05 up to S$4333.50 depending on citizenship status and age range.

There are 200 spots available for Cohort 2. Should you not be available during Cohort 2 timeframes, keep checking for future cohort launches!

Applicants for the first phase must meet the following criteria:

• Singaporean permanent resident or national
