Industrial Additive Manufacturing for Practitioners

Manufacturing is a key pillar of Singapore’s economy and contributes 20% to its Gross Domestic Product (GDP). Additive Manufacturing (AM) has been identified as an essential enabler allowing Singapore to further strengthen its advanced manufacturing foothold in a global competitive landscape with plentiful opportunities for growth and good job generation. This course will equip participants with the necessary skills and framework required to define an appropriate business case for AM and gain technical insights from the ground-level upwards towards the execution of AM in a safe and structured manner.
