DIS Polytechnic Cyber Work-Learn Scheme
Established as the fourth Service of the SAF, the Digital and Intelligence Service will raise, train and sustain digital forces and capabilities to fulfil its mission to defend the peace and security of Singapore from the evolving and increasingly complex threats in the digital domain. The DIS plays a critical role in defending Singapore from threats in the digital domain and allows the SAF to operate better as a networked and integrated force to deal with a wider spectrum of external threats to enhance and safeguard Singapore's peace and sovereignty. The DIS collaborates with partners across the MINDEF, SAF, Whole-of-Government agencies and like-minded partners in academia and industry in defending our nation against threats in the digital domain.
RP is proud to partner with the DIS for the Polytechnic Cyber Work-Learn Scheme (WLS), which was announced at MINDEF’s 2024 Committee of Supply Debate. Under the DIS-RP Cyber WLS, successful applicants enrolled in the Diploma in Cybersecurity and Digital Forensics are able to enlist one year earlier than their schoolmates, while having their military service with the SAF recognised towards the fulfilment of their polytechnic’s final-year internship requirements.
Under the DIS-RP Cyber WLS, Cyber Specialists will perform cybersecurity roles such as cyber forensics, incident response, malware analysis and penetration testing.
Application for the DIS-RP Cyber WLS is open to all
