Beyond UI, UX, web-dev and digital marketing, the remote-first approach of the program prepare students for the future of work in a cross-cultural setting.
In 2021, Raffles students collaborated with students from Colegio de Letran de San Juan as well as Meridian International Business, Arts and Technology (or MINT) College over
a month period to develop a digital solution to solve a social problem of their choice.
Some of the tools that students are exposed to include but not limited to Slack, Github, Miro, Webflow, Notion and Figma. While the tools may change rapidly, fundamentally students who go through the program get a better sense of how to rapidly deploy
a minimum viable product using a no-code stack. They also learn to setup digital workspaces to collaborate synchronously and asynchronously.
Students are also exposed to emerging trends in the region through industry sharing throughout the program. In 2021, students heard from the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS), NUS Fintech Lab, InstaReM (a cross border payment solution), Grab and more. At the end of the program, students pitch the solutions to a panel of industry professionals and investors.

Sharing by Filipino professionals during January Induction Program 2019 – students learnt about comparative education analysis between Singapore and the Philippines, transport infrastructure as well as food
and culture of the Philippines. Similar exposure will be offered through our program by engaging relevant professionals in various sectors

Speakers at our program are leaders with years of industry experience. We actively work to enable partnerships with schools in ASEAN to offer a cross cultural learning experience.
