Accredited Islamic religious teachers who have yet to attend a mandatory ethics class can soon do so online. This is part of a new initiative to ensure that all of them fulfil the requirement by 2020 or risk being struck off.
Ustaz Irwan Hadi from the Islamic Religious Council of Singapore (Muis) revealed this in a recent interview with The Straits Times, following news that an accredited Islamic religious teacher was detained under the Internal Security Act (ISA).
