REPUBLIC Polytechnic hopes to train about 2,800 students and volunteers, with the launch of a new resource centre.
Called the Tan Ean Kiam Service-Learning Resource Centre, it provides discussion areas as well as galleries to showcase community projects.
It is supported by a $200,000 grant from a foundation named after the late merchant and co-founder of Overseas Chinese Bank Corporation, Tan Ean Kiam.
The Woodlands-based polytechnic is training not just its own students, but hopes to reach out to schools and volunteer welfare organisations in the area.
