It is currently replaced by the EduTrust certification scheme administered by the Council for Private Education.

EduTrust Certification
The EduTrust certification scheme is a voluntary scheme administered by the Council for Private Education for private education institutions in Singapore. Although it is a voluntary scheme, it is one of the pre-requisites which private education institutions that enrol international students must meet to qualify for the issue of Student Passes, as stipulated by the Immigration and Checkpoints Authority (ICA). The scheme provides a means for better private education institutions to differentiate themselves as having achieved higher standards in key areas of management and provision of educational services.
The Young Prodigy Language School has been awarded the EduTrust Provisional Certification (Cert No: EDU-3-3032) with validity from 15th October 2011 to 14th October 2012. (Please click to view - The Young Prodigy Language School EduTrust Provisional Certification award)
