Training

"The only thing worse than training your employees and having them leave is not training them and having them stay."

Henry Ford

In AgileLab we believe that people's continuous learning and improvement is the only key to success.

Training as benefit

For this reason, several Welfare & Benefits are provided in order to incentive as much as possible the personal and professional growth. Specifically, you can find more info about your annual training budget benefit: make good use of it!

About this personal training budget, here are two accountabilities that aren't with the circle:Training circle:

• Defining purchase process, meaning how to spend company money. This means payment methods with training personal budget (eg reimbursement, direct billing to Agile Lab) are defined by the circle:Finance circle. You can find this info on handbook on SpendingCompanyMoney page.
• Making reimbursements happen - any decision about deadlines to file expenses on ElapseIt is within the accountability of circle:People Circle. You can find general info on handbook on SpendingCompanyMoney page and in circle:People Circle communications.

The Training circle

AgileLab has a specific circle:Training to fulfill the purpose of never stop growing. The circle promotes upskilling as individual and collective practice. Upskilling means to improve both hard (e.g. technical) and soft skills (e.g. company values, leadership), and isn't limited to technical roles.

You are encouraged to get to know the circle:Training circle and its offerings in terms of accountability and roles on holaspirit.
