24 June 2018

Ngee Ann Polytechnic will be launching a new Artificial Intelligence in Finance education programme.

The programme comprises of 18 modules that can be accessed online, and aims to equip working professionals with the necessary skills to tap opportunities in the financial sector.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is being increasingly deployed in the financial sector, and can be used to swiftly reply to customer queries, automate data entry jobs, even hasten approval of loans.

Participants of Ngee Ann Polytechnic’s program can expect to benefit from practical insights based on real-world applications, and have the opportunity to hear views from global guest speakers.

The programme is also supported by SkillsFuture Singapore. Singaporeans get to enjoy a 70 per cent government subsidy.
