Singapore
Professionals Network (SPN)
was established in January 2005 to address the need for professional networking
and career development amongst Singaporeans and non-Singaporeans working
and living in UK. The two core tenets of SPN are as follows:
-Networking:
To provide a networking resource for Singaporean and non-Singaporean professionals
working in all industries in the UK; and
-Mentoring:
To provide a mentoring network for Singaporean and non-Singaporean undergraduates
and post-graduates transitioning from academia to full-time employment
SPN
seeks to provide a professional platform for members to develop their networks
and careers. Its activities focus on the professional aspects of career
development, progression and network expansion. Industry-specific activities
for each industry silo will be organized to cater to the diverse groups
of members in SPN.
SPN will also establish a formal mentoring program for undergraduates
and postgraduates in UK to address the current lack of formal knowledge
transfer in our community. SPN aims to prepare these students for
the transition from academia to full-time employment in building up the
necessary skills.
