Methodology

In YES Programme, we have married cutting-edge technological design with business excellence. In the heart of its design revolution is the Siemens Velocity Engine. This comprehensive suite of world-class design software covers all pre-production stages of conceptualisation, innovation, design and prototyping, integrates itself seamlessly into the Microsoft Windows platform, and offers a user-friendly design interface that is intuitively simple and easy to use. This innovative software is made available to schools in Singapore through YES

The unique business curriculum designed by Citech provides primary and secondary students with basic marketing and business know-how to employ the Siemens Velocity Engine, and in the process, nurturing Singapore's budding entrepreneurs.
