Our professional training staff continually updates training programs and materials. The focus is on innovative learning methods and technology, including autonomous learning with multimedia computer support and teletutoring, workshops and computer networks for virtual teamwork in business-oriented projects. The major part of our investment in this field is devoted to continuing education. Due to rapid changes in technology and organizational methods, employees must continuously upgrade their skills. While managers must pay attention to the continuing education of their staff, the personal initiative of the individuals is also required.
Young people comprise another key target group.
