About IML
The Institute for Military Learning (IML) provides SAF with the executive arm to professionalise the instructor corps and position SAF to be a leader in adult learning. IML conducts Training Development & Instructional (TD&I) courses and Continuing Professional Education programmes for all SAF TD&I practitioners, ranging from junior instructors to Training Institute Commanders to hone their competencies. IML drives the Training Institute (TI) excellence in all SAF TIs through the Training Institute Excellence Model (TIEM) certification.
Leadership message
“Through IML courses, the learners can attain various levels of instructional and training development competencies. Some of these courses are embedded into the route of advancement courses in order to enhance their role as SAF Development & Instructional Practitioners. Basic competencies are also developed in the junior leaders, including NSFs in Officer and Specialist Cadet Courses. In addition, IML courses allow recognition for Workforce Skill Qualification (WSQ). This gives our graduates national level recognition.”
