Description

The Management Development Institute of Singapore (MDIS) founded in 1956, is Singapore's oldest not-for-profit professional institute for lifelong learning.

In its fifth decade, MDIS has maintained its dedication to professionals through the provision of well-accredited courses, seminars and management services. MDIS provides opportunities for individuals to develop professionally through academic programmes in the areas of Business and Management, Mass Communications, Information Technology, Life Sciences, Psychology, Travel, Tourism and Hospitality Management and Engineering offered in collaboration with highly acclaimed universities in Australia, France, the United Kingdom and the United States of America.    
       
The success of MDIS' graduates is attributed to the institute's strong commitment to high quality standards of education. MDIS' exemplary education and business excellence standards were further endorsed in July 2003 when MDIS received the Singapore Quality Class award under a new category created for Private Education Organisations (PEOs). In August 2005, MDIS received the CaseTrust Accreditation for PEOs.

In September 2008, MDIS set up its first overseas campus in Tashkent, the capital of Uzbekistan in Central Asia to offer world-class tertiary education to students from the Central Asia region.

MDIS has representative offices in China, India, Indonesia, Sri Lanka, Thailand and Vietnam. It is also represented by agents throughout Asia, Africa and the Middle East.
