About Us

 Introduction to SOHA Institute(首昊学院)

 
SOHA Institute was previously known as TCM Professional Centre. The name change took effect in Jan 2010 arising from a business alignment and its emergence as a full fledged institute.
 
(Wikipedia: In the Tibetan language, "svaha" is translated as "so be it" and is often pronounced and orthographically represented as "soha"). 
The Institute houses two departments – Department of Humanities and Department of Alternative Medicine. The latter takes over the coverage of the programmes previously conducted by TCM Professional Centre in delivering professional certification and enrichment courses in various therapeutic and healing methods. These courses are accredited by overseas institutions renowned for their specialized courses in Traditional & Complementary Medicine and Therapies.  They include sports massage, reflexology, herbalogy, TCM nutrition, post natal care, herbal beauty, care-giver, elderly and massotherapy.   This department is also active in imparting employable skills to the visually impaired.
The department offers professional certification courses  validated by Chengdu University of TCM. SOHA Institute is also an approved training organisation of the Singapore Workforce Skills Qualification (WSQ) and ITEC(UK) in complementary therapies. Such programmes are offered at Certificate, Advanced Certificate and Diploma levels.
In early 2010, the Department of Humanities was set up to provide courses in Management, Business, Accounting, Finance, Executive English and Chinese languages. Headed by Mr Kong See Wah (M Sc, MBA, B Acc, CPA) who was a veteran banker, accountant and trainer, and a former director and lecturer at ScholarHouse with a history of over 20 years, he and his team of dedicated trainers have brought with them a wealth of experience in the adult education and training field in Singapore, Malaysia, China and Indonesia.  
 
In addition to Professional Diploma courses awarded by IFA (UK), the Department provides short-term professional programs (ranging from 3 days to 2 weeks) for managers, administrators and executives with the objective of providing fresh ideas and new information on, and challenges to changes in business environment and practices. Some of the customised programs include:
