The Specialist Cadet School (SCS, Chinese: 见习士官学府, Malay: Sekolah Kadet Pakar, Tamil: நிபுைத்துவ பயிற்சி அதிகாரிப் பள்ளி)[2] is the military training centre for the Singapore Armed Forces' specialists, the equivalent of non-commissioned officers (NCOs) in other countries' armed forces.[1] Made up of twelve companies divided into three schools (SCS I, SCS II, and SCS III), it is located in Pasir Laba Camp in the Western Water Catchment.[3]

The three schools, along with the SAFWOS Leadership School (SAFWOS) and Specialist and Warrant Officer Advanced School (SWAS), form the Specialist and Warrant Officer Institute (SWI).[1]
