Our Trades

TBVTI trains across seven construction trades. We teach each trade end to end, from the very first step of cutting, mixing or setting out, right through to the finished output. By the time a trainee completes a course, they understand the full process of their trade, not just one part of it.

Every course follows a BCA approved syllabus and is taught to Singapore standards. Each course ends with an assessment, and the certification offered is awarded upon successful completion of the training program. Every certificate can be checked on this website.

Training that feels like the real site

Our training area in Chennai was built to give trainees real, hands-on experience. The workshops are set up to match the conditions, tools and pace of an actual Singapore worksite, so trainees practise on the same kind of work they will do on the job. They carry each task through from start to finish, which builds the confidence and skill to perform from their first day on site.
