General
What is the difference between the 1-Day Your Heart My Heart Course and the 2-Day Cinta Abadi Course?
Your Heart My Heart is a 1-day course designed by SPMC for busy couples. The syllabus has been specially curated and all the most essential knowledge on Islamic marriage life has been condensed into a comprehensive course just for you.
Cinta Abadi is a 2-day course, with a syllabus designed by Ministry of Social and Family Development (MSF) that allows couples to have more couple interaction and time to review the content. It is part of a programme by MSF which segments couples by categories of issues they might face based on marriage records from Singapore's Registry of Marriages (ROM) and Registry of Muslim Marriages (ROMM). Couples are encouraged to join the course catered to addressing their issues better.
Both courses have been approved by ROMM.

Which course would you recommend for me?
It completely depends on your availability and ease. We understand that different couples have different needs, especially in Singapore where work and life is hard to balance. If you lack time to attend a course but want to gain as much knowledge as possible for your marriage, we recommend our 1-Day Your Heart My Heart Course. If you prefer having time to review the content, we recommend the 2-Day Cinta Abadi Course.

I am a / marrying a non-Singapore citizen. Can we take this course?

If you have none of them, we recommend that you undergo Pre-Marriage LTVP Assessment (PMLA) or e-file first so that you will be informed on the programme most suitable for you. The PMLA will give you greater clarity on your eligibility for LTVP and shorten your LTVP assessment time.

I want to attend this course without my partner. Can I take this course?
We strongly recommend our participants to attend our courses with their partner. As marriage requires understanding from both sides, many disagreements and misunderstandings can actually be resolved by having both parties present to learn about the fundamentals of marriage, understand the reasoning behind your partner’s decisions and how to avoid and overcome obstacles together. Our pre-marriage courses provide the right platform for such discussions.
If you truly are unable to attend with your partner, you may still sign up for our course. Some activities may require partner discussion, so you may take that time to analyse and discover your own preferences and priorities in marriage before discussing them with your partner in your own time.

Yes. We are happy that you are preparing early for marriage life and welcome you to join us! As some activities may require partner discussion, you may take that time to analyse and discover your own preferences and priorities in your future marriage.
