The BCA Academy o the Built Environment is the education and research
arm o the Building and Construction Authority (BCA), Singapore.
Founded in 1984 as the Construction Industry Training Centre (CITC),
its main role was the training o crat workers or the rapidly growing
construction industry. In 1994, the Centre was renamed the Construction
Industry Training Institute (CITI) and was moved to its purpose-built
campus at Braddell Road. CITI was restructured and transormed to
become the BCA Academy in 2007. Whilst the training o cratsmen
or the construction industry remains a key ocus, the BCA Academy
now takes on the new challenge o equipping proessionals, managers,
executives and technicians with the knowledge, skills and competency
to operate eectively in a technologically advanced and modern builtenvironment sector.
Today, the BCA Academy is probably the only institution in the world
that provides a ull range o training and education programmes tailored
to meet the diverse needs o the building industry at all levels.

As we move towards a knowledge-based economy,
the industry must restructure itsel to ensure that
those who work on the construction sites are highly
productive, sae and have high standards. These high
standards will translate to a stronger demand or
knowledge-based skilled workorce in the near uture,
making the Diploma in Construction Engineering
a premium qualication or those aspiring to be
successul builders in this new millennium.
The Diploma in Construction Engineering provides
graduates with a head-start or their career in the
construction industry. This qualication is acceptableor registration as a Resident Technical Ofcer under
