This year, more than 50 educators and professionals will graduate with the Specialist Diploma in Learning Support for Specific Learning Differences (SpLDs), the Specialist Diploma in Educational Therapy, and the Master of Arts in Special Educational Needs/Additional Learning Needs (MA SEN/ALN). These programmes draw from the Dyslexia Association of Singapore’s strong tradition of authentic student assessment and intervention, ensuring our graduates are well-equipped with practical expertise and grounded perspectives in special education.
