UOB includes data analytics and project management in employee training programme

SINGAPORE - To better prepare its staff for in-demand jobs in the coming years, United Overseas Bank has expanded its employee training programme to include data analytics and project management courses.

UOB's"Better U" learning and development programme was first launched in October 2019. The programme's first level took the form of a 12-week foundational course that focused on five competencies. This year's expansion is open to employees who have completed the foundational modules and allows them to choose between the data analysis and project management tracks.

He added that those who gain enough relevant knowledge through the programme may be allowed to pivot into full-time roles in either area. Mr Gunawan Zhu, a credit risk analyst in UOB's Business Banking segment under Group Retail, told The Straits Times earlier this week that the foundational modules enabled him to"keep up a positive attitude and to keep learning, especially in this current climate of uncertainty".
