Days!

"With   the  SIU  three  year  track,  I  can  get  satisfaction  from  the
accomplishment  of  each  individual  level  of  Diploma, Advanced Diploma,
Associate Degree and finally, my degree. It helps to increase my employment

Also,  I  can  accelerate  my  progression  with simultaneous completion of

best part of it is that the cost of attaining this SIU degree with the said
benefits  is  comparative to other final-year degree programmes, " added Mr
Leong.
