From stronger job support to more training opportunities, a slew of measures aimed at empowering workers at every stage of life with lifelong learning and career support were announced at Singapore’s Budget 2025. For example, mid-career workers (40 & above) who enroll in part-time training from early 2026, can receive a $300 monthly training allowance under the SkillsFuture Level-Up Programme. For lower-wage workers (30 & above), the Workfare Skills Support scheme will also be enhanced, offering a training allowance of up to 50 per cent of their average monthly income for full-time training, and $300 per month for part-time courses. But, the one lingering question on many people’s minds - will I earn more after upskilling? On this episode of Morning Shot, Walter Theseira, Associate Professor, Economics Programme, Singapore University of Social Sciences shares his insights.
