The curriculum includes communication skills, emotional intelligence, executive presence, stress management, business writing, public speaking, conflict resolution, stakeholder management, critical thinking, time management, innovation and engineering ethics.
During the final week, trainees will also participate in a one-week Certificate Programme in Personality Development organised by the National Defence University (NDU).
