The early years are important years when it comes to the development of children. As part of the Government’s ongoing efforts to uplift the preschool sector, the Ministry of Education (MOE) set up the National Institute of Early Childhood Development (NIEC) in 2019 – that’s us!
Since opening our doors, we have poured ourselves into raising the standard of preschool educator training, working together with our key partners, the Early Childhood Development Agency (ECDA) and MOE. We offer courses taught by lecturers with deep early childhood (EC) expertise, and serve students at various points in their EC career. As the national training institute for EC educators in Singapore, our mission, vision, and values are our cornerstone.
