This self-paced e-learning refresher module is designed to update existing SPS volunteers and community partners on key shifts in Singapore’s correctional and rehabilitation landscape.
Rather than teaching new skills, this module offers system-level context to help you stay aligned with national directions, deepen your understanding of diverse offender profiles, and continue contributing meaningfully to a coordinated, whole-of-society rehabilitation effort.
Whether you’re actively volunteering or returning after a break, this training ensures you're refreshed on what’s changed and why your role still matters.
How This Course Makes a Difference?
This module brings you up to speed.
By revisiting key frameworks and introducing new directions (like Corrections 2030 and restorative ecosystems), this refresher keeps your contribution aligned with national efforts ensuring your support remains relevant, relational, and rooted in best practices.
You’ll leave better equipped to walk alongside those you serve with informed empathy and renewed confidence.
