The PCICS programme will run one intake each year in April/May from 2025. We encourage graduates to submit their ARS certification applications immediately after completing their undergraduate studies. Once your ARS application is approved, you will receive a provisional ARS licence and be enrolled in the next available PCICS intake, which takes place in April/May.

Graduates with a bachelor's degree in Islamic Studies who have not yet applied for the Asatizah Recognition Scheme (ARS) can submit their applications online here. To begin, click "Sign in" and follow the application process for ARS certification. If you encounter any difficulties, please contact the Religious Talent Development (Regulation) team at ARS@muis.gov.sg.

Current Tier 1 (Associate) or Tier 2 Asatizah who have completed their tertiary education and wish to upgrade to ARS Tier 1 (Graduate) should contact Religious Talent Development (Regulation) at ARS@muis.gov.sg. Upon notification, we will process your information for PCICS enrolment.
