Private Education Act
Under the new Private Education Act, legislated in
December 2009, a Council for Private Education (CPE) was
set up to regulate the private education industry in
Singapore. All Private Education Institutions (PEIs) are
required to comply with the regulations under the Act in
order to continue operations.
Following are the requirements which Singapore Institute of
Management Pte Ltd (SIM PL) has put in place:-
PEI-Student Contract
CPE, in aiming to enhance the confidence of students and
their parents in the quality of education in Singapore, has
stipulated that all PEIs must sign a PEI-Student Contract with
students. The contract sets out the terms and conditions
governing the relationship between the student and PEI. SIM
PL will honour all terms and conditions in the contract and
in all communication materials.
Students may request for a copy of the PEI-Student Contract
from SIM PL or view it on the CPE website
(www.cpe.gov.sg).
Cooling-Off Period
There will be a cooling-off period of 7 working days after
signing the PEI-Student Contract. Students have the right to
cancel the contract within the 7 working days and be entitled
to the Maximum Refund amount stipulated under Clause 2.4
of the PEI-Student Contract (less any course fees consumed
by the Student if the withdrawal date is later than the course
commencement date). After the cooling-off period, SIM PL’s
refund policy will apply.
Fee Protection Scheme
SIM PL adopts a Fee Protection Scheme (FPS) to protect the
paid fees of both local and international students. The FPS
serves to protect the student’s fees in the event that the PEI
is unable to continue operations due to insolvency, and/or
regulatory closure. In addition, the FPS protects the student
if the PEI fails to pay penalties or return fees to the student
arising from judgments made against it by the Singapore
courts.
The FPS is compulsory for all students and is available in 2
forms, either Escrow or Insurance Protection Scheme. For
more information, visit www1.simge.edu.sg/edutrust.
SIM PL has appointed Lonpac Insurance Bhd as the FPS
insurance provider. Under the FPS insurance scheme,
students’ fees are insured by Lonpac Insurance Bhd. In case
of events, as stated above, students will be able to claim
their paid fees from Lonpac Insurance Bhd.
SIM PL has also appointed Hong Kong and Shanghai
Banking Corporation Limited (HSBC) as the FPS escrow
provider. Under the FPS escrow scheme, students will pay
their fees directly to HSBC. HSBC will act as the custodian
of students’ fees and will only disburse the fees to SIM PL
on a fixed schedule. Again, in case of events as stated
above, students will be able to retrieve their unconsumed
fees from HSBC.
More details of the FPS can also be found in the FPS
Instruction Manual, available at www.cpe.gov.sg
Medical Insurance
SIM PL has in place a group medical insurance scheme for all its
students. This medical insurance scheme will have a minimum
coverage as follows:- an annual coverage limit of S$20,000 per
student, covers up to B2 ward in government and restructured
hospitals and provides for 24 hours coverage in Singapore and
overseas (if student is involved in SIM PL-related activities)
throughout the course duration.
For more information on medical insurance, visit
www1.simge.edu.sg/medicalinsurance.

3. Refunds (if any) will be processed within 7 working days of receipt of the original fully completed hardcopy Student Request Form with relevant supporting documentary proof. Forms that are received after 12.00 noon would be considered as submission on the next working day.
4. Approval for change of course will be granted on a case-by-case basis and subject to each individual meeting the course admission requirements.
5. Transferring to another institution is deemed as a withdrawal from SIM PL. As such, for international students who transfer to another institution, their International Student’s Pass will be cancelled. These students will have to submit their Passport and International Student’s Pass at the Student Services Centre (SIM HQ Extension) within 3 working days of the transfer. Attendance record and other relevant documentation to facilitate the transfer will be provided upon request.
6. International students who wish to change to another course offered by SIM will also need to submit their Student’s Pass application to Immigration and Checkpoints Authority of Singapore (ICA) for approval.
7. For new applicants, in the event that the Student’s Pass application is not approved by ICA, the applicant will receive a full refund of the course fee.
8. Course fees must be paid in full before the course commencement date.
Confidentiality
SIM PL is committed to maintaining the confidentiality of
the student’s personal information and undertakes not to
divulge any of the student’s personal information to any
third party without the prior written consent of the student
SUBJECT TO the obligation of SIM PL to disclose to any
Singapore government authority any information relating
to the student in compliance with the law and/or to the
organisation conferring/awarding the qualification.
