Scheduled for 13 January 2024, with additional webinars from January 10-17, the Kaplan Diploma Open House 2024 is a worthwhile event to go for if you’re considering a private diploma, or just curious about the private education scene here in Singapore.
What is a Kaplan Diploma?
Although it’s quite a household name, it’s often misunderstood.
No, Kaplan is not a private university.
Kaplan is basically an accredited private education provider that provides an extensive range of over 450 academic and professional courses at diploma, degree, and certificate levels.
While its degree programmes are usually partnered with a university overseas, its diploma programmes are taught in-house by local, experienced practitioners, and offers a pathway into year 2 of a Kaplan degree programme if you want to further your studies.
It’s also completed in as fast as 8 months.
Compare that with a 3-year diploma course in a local polytechnic.

So, what’s the Open House about?
The event offers a unique opportunity for prospective students to explore a variety of diploma programs, including specialisations in fields like Accounting, Business Management, Communication, and Information Technology.
The open house also offers direct interaction with faculty and current students, providing a real feel of the campus life and study environment – alongside seminars and talks about various diploma courses and other Kaplan programmes.

Reasons to Consider Going for the Kaplan Diploma Open House
Long story short, attending the Kaplan Open House is an excellent opportunity for prospective students to do three things:
- gather detailed information about various diploma programmes
- gain insights into career prospects
- understand Kaplan's educational approach
No matter how much online research you do, you can’t beat face-to-face interaction – which is important especially when it comes to something as important as choosing a school.
If you do take a liking to Kaplan’s programmes, perks like application fee waivers and goodie bags make your time worth it.
If not, then you know for sure that’s not what you want, and you can look elsewhere.
Plus, it’s a really accessible event to get to, unlike other universities or polytechnics we know. *cough*
