Question 1

What is the Pre-Conference Training?

Accepted Answer

PREPMUN 2025 will be hosting a Pre-Conference Delegate Training (PCT) session for all delegates. To better prepare beginner delegates for Model UN, we will be conducting sessions that will introduce them to the workings of the United Nations as well as the skills and technicalities needed to participate engagingly in Model UN. The session will cover topics such as, but not limited to, the Rules of Procedure, how to formulate a nuanced stance, and how to lobby effectively. The carefully curated curriculum will be delivered by the Student Officers of the respective committees.

Our PCT for PREPMUN 2025 will be held on 15 November 2025. A morning session will be held from 0900 to 1200 (GMT +8), and our afternoon session will be held from 1400 to 1700 (GMT +8).

It is compulsory for all delegates to attend the training session as it will be invaluable in preparing them with the skills and content knowledge needed to not only participate meaningfully in PREPMUN 2025, but also maximise their potential for growth and learning at our conference.

All delegates will be notified of the respective sessions via email following the release of committee allocations. We look forward to seeing you at our Pre-Conference Training for PREPMUN 2025!

Question 2

Why is PCT compulsory for all delegates?

Accepted Answer

PCT is part of PREPMUN 2025 training programme, with the objectives of nurturing delegates and giving them a warm welcome into the Model United Nations circuit. Given that the materials covered during PCT may not be covered during the conference itself and we look to comprehensively enable delegates in our PREPMUN spaces, PCT will be compulsory for all delegates.

Question 3

What will be covered during PCT?

Accepted Answer

Category A and B delegates will sit through four modules: Introduction to MUN, Research Skills, Position Paper Writing and Rules of Procedure. This will be capped off by a MUN simulation to help delegates gauge their own aptitude and familiarity with how a MUN committee operates.

For Category C and Press delegates, Student Officers will deliver modules that go into greater depth on different facets of their committees, and specialised mechanics as relevant to the the specific committees.

Crisis delegates will be exposed to several critical components of a Crisis simulation: Introduction to Crisis, Directive Writing, Portfolio Powers and Update Response. The training will then end off with a Crisis simulation to allow delegates to experience the differences between Crisis committees and UNGA committees, familiarizing themselves with the skills learnt during PCT.
