Record 8 in 10 employers provided structured training in 2014
Thanks to more government support.
A record 8 in 10 private employers provided structured training to at least employees in 2014, according to the Ministry of Manpower's biennial Survey on Employer Supported Training.
In 2012, only 70% of firms provided training for their employees. The growth may reflect greater government support and emphasis in upgrading the skills of the workforce, the MoM said.
The average training expenditure incurred by training-providing establishments was $726 per trainee in 2014, compared to $717 per trainee in 2012.
When averaged across all employees in these establishments, training expenditure per employee was $410 in 2014, compared to $407 in 2012.
