Staff Industrial Attachment to Tyco Fire and Security

Tyco Fire and Security has been very forthcoming in giving their support to ITE. On top of taking in our students for internship, our staffs are also given the opportunity to be exposed to the security industry. This was the 2nd batch of staff attachment to Tycom. The 3 weeks attachment was very fruitful where staff have the chance to visit different setup and even sensitive installations. The experience gained will definitely benefit our students as staff can better relate thses real life examples and case studies into the curriculum.
