When I first came to Singapore, I was working as a pet groomer under a Work Permit. I knew I wanted to build a better future here, but upgrading my career and status felt out of reach. That changed when I joined the degree program recommended by Kenneth & Co. The course gave me the qualifications I needed, and shortly after completing it, I successfully upgraded to an E Pass. That was a huge turning point for me. Now, with their help again, I’m preparing to apply for PR – something I never thought was possible before. I’m really grateful for their guidance and step-by-step support throughout the whole journey. If you’re serious about upgrading your life in Singapore, I highly recommend Kenneth & Co.

I have finally gotten my PR after 10 years. I’ve been holding a work permit for 10 years and it made me worried when I had to renew it as the policies are constantly changing, so I decided to give the diploma a shot to try studying for it and meet the eligibility requirements of an S-Pass. The online courses have helped me improve my industrial knowledge and reach my eventual goal of a Singapore PR. I wanted to encourage everyone if you’re brave enough to try, you may have a chance like I did.
