The Private Education Act was legislated in December 2009 to strengthen the registration framework and enforcement provisions for Private Education Institutions (PEIs). Since October 2016, SkillsFuture Singapore (SSG) has overseen the private education sector, carrying out the functions and governance powers under the Private Education Act 2009. Under the Enhanced Registration Framework (ERF), all PEIs must be registered with SSG before commencing operations. SOQ International Academy is a registered PEI offering SSG-permitted programmes, including WSQ-accredited courses, Diploma programmes, and professional certification courses designed to meet industry needs.
