A surprise move by SFC. It is the first time they're opening up their training facilities for another airline, albeit Tigerair is partly owned by Singapore Airlines. Tigerair currently has MPL cadet programmes conducted by STAA and CAE OAA, so this makes SFC the third flight school to train pilots for the low cost carrier.
Very limited information is available currently, with not even an online application portal available. Application will have to be done through email, or better if in person at Seletar. If the CPL/IR course is going to cost the same as a privately funded cadet, then it definitely will not come cheap. Do not forget that after graduation, you may still need to pay for type-rating on the A320 in order to start flying for Tigerair.
