I would say the training and development opportunities are good, but there is room for improvement. A lot of the experience is self-directed, with development opportunities often shaped by the relationships you build and the advocacy provided by your manager, rotation leader, or mentors. The company provides mandatory training modules for all employees, along with a range of optional learning opportunities, events, and courses that are advertised throughout the organisation. Employees are encouraged to take ownership of their own development and seek out opportunities aligned with their interests and career goals. One area that could be improved is providing clearer guidance on professional memberships, industry groups, communities of practice, and external forums that employees can join. It would also be helpful to better explain how individuals can contribute to these groups and how participation can support both personal development and business outcomes. This would make it easier, particularly for new employees and graduates, to navigate the many opportunities available and build relevant skills and networks.
