Fifty-eight percent of Singapore employers say data analytics and data science roles are the hardest positions to fill, a higher share than in the US or UK. External candidates are scarce, and competition for them is expensive.
So most organizations are looking inward. Upskilling is on the agenda across nearly every Singapore employer surveyed, but funding it is where plans stall. Fifty-eight percent cite cost as the primary barrier to training at scale, well above US and UK peers. The intent is there. Building the financial infrastructure to match it is the harder problem.
The organizations moving fastest are the ones treating training as an internal capability, not a vendor relationship. Singapore employers are more likely than those in other markets to develop programs in-house and offer stipends for self-directed learning. They're less likely to outsource it.
