Alumni who participated in our Project Apprentice shared their experience of the programme:

skills and knowledge that goes beyond the classroom. I am now able to face the uncertainties of the job market with tenacity and confidence.” – David Ranil
“Truly a life changing experience. The skills provided in this programme are beneficial in helping one to cope in the work force during the pandemic. It really helped me build my interpersonal skills, and a personal brand for myself. It is a noble initiative with strong outcomes! Super grateful I was chosen for it!” – Deborah Adison
“Being part of the BAC Apprenticeship Programme with a group of vibrant fellow apprentices has taught me the importance of teamwork, adaptability and resilience. Through the various courses and projects, we were assigned to manage, I was given a chance to see how I could put the skills I attained from my pursuit of a law degree into practice.” – Hew Hoong Liang (Nathan)
