Chart of the Day: Only 28% of Singaporean organisations offer data training to all employees

Less than half of Singaporean workers with data roles offered data training.

About 3 in 10 or 28% of Singapore organisations offer data training to all employees even as most organisations recognise the importance of data literacy, data visualisation software firm, Tableau, said in its study.

In its poll, it also indicated that 31% of organisations in the Lion City provide data training to some employees who have no traditional data roles whilst 41% offer training to workers with traditional roles.

Overall, in the Asia-Pacific Japan organisations, 38% only offer training to employees in traditional data roles, Tableau said.

With this figure, Tableau said it leaves workers to learn through ad-hoc, on-the-job learning, including from coworkers.

This is in contrast to the study findings that 80% of decision makers believed that their organisation successfully equips its workers with the needed data literacy skills.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
