ABOUT US
ATC been actively involved in Skill Enhancement of Engineering Personnel on Welding Technology and other Technical, short term & long-term programs.
Conventional training becomes the privilege of those who can afford to pay for it. Training these days comes with exorbitant training fees, losing precious time for many companies who cannot spare their work personnel.
Lifelong learning should be widely encouraged for working adults to enhance their skill development. With rapid progress in global competitive industries, lifelong learning should become a non-timetable asset to further spur knowledge and human capital for the economy of the nation.
Online learning could facilitate participants to pick up the pace in knowledge and will make the workforce more productive while the expense to study is cost-effective.
VISION
To provide development of human capital specific career development programs and customized consulting solutions to enrich learning and optimize individual performance advancement of skilled trades worldwide.
MISSION
Recognizing the need to stay competitive in today's knowledge-based global economy as one of the centers establish itself as a school for adult learning programmes around the world.
