Here at Altro we encourage a supportive culture where all employees are given the opportunity and encouragement to learn and develop. So, what can you expect?
Within the first few weeks all new employees are invited to a Learning & Development induction where they are introduced to the training opportunities available. They will also be invited to core training in Stress Management, Dignity at Work, Health & Safety and Manual Handling – we want to keep our employees as happy, healthy and safe as we can!!
Learning takes a number of other forms, of course we all learn every day within our jobs... and we encourage a coaching style of managing to make sure that this happens. We like to collaborate here which creates loads of opportunities to get involved in project groups, events and other activities to broaden our knowledge and also get to know lots of different people right across the business. As they say, ‘your network is your power’ (and it also makes it far more fun at the Xmas parties, which we love too!)
We have an extensive programme of internal training, covering topics ranging from Project Management to Emotional Intelligence. Anyone can attend these and they’re another great opportunity to meet new people whilst learning something new! We have an 8-day training programme to support our managers along with ‘Aspiring Managers’ training for those who think they might like to become managers in the future. We also offer career coaching to support career aspirations, or to help to determine what your career aspirations are, if you’re feeling a little confused!
And finally, if you want to learn a little more we have a dedicated e-learning platform allowing employees to learn at a time, place and pace that works for them.
