PwC Singapore commits $10m to upskill over 3,000 employees

They will receive training in data visualisation, data analytics and automation.

PwC Singapore has pledged close to $10m over the next two years in an effort to enhance the digital skills of more than 3,500 of its employees, the company announced.

The group will go through more than 80,000 hours of “digital fitness” training, which will be assisted via the company’s digital fitness app. Basic lessons include data visualisation, data analytics and automation.

A survey by PwC reveals that two in five Singaporeans are nervous about the future impact of technology in their jobs, with 31% feeling that they are not well-equipped for new workplace technologies.

On a global scale, PwC is aiming to upskill its 276,000-strong workforce. The company is setting aside $3b for the next four years to train the global workforce in specialist skills of data analytics, robotics process automation and artificial intelligence.

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.
