Customer focus has been at the heart of everything we've done for over 10 years. Continuous learning gives us the ability to adapt to change and transcend boundaries. We invest in the skills and technologies necessary for the long-term and sustainable development of our international company and business continuity.

We enable our employees to learn together and from each other, from our customers and our partners.

We encourage collaboration, the pursuit of new skills, and diverse thinking through our extensive training and mentoring programs.

We use our collective potential to innovate and find new opportunities to shape the future both within our organization and in society as a whole.

We are building an organization that prioritizes well-being, invests in learning and careers, and prepares our colleagues for the future of work.

Goals of Learning

Our learning and development initiatives are guided by clear objectives:

  • Supporting the sustainable growth of our company by building a qualified and motivated workforce.
  • Developing competencies required to adapt to modern challenges, including digital transformation, innovation, and sustainability.
  • Strengthening our competitive edge by integrating new skills, technologies, and methodologies.
  • Creating an environment where employees can learn, grow, and achieve their professional and personal aspirations.
  • Enhancing employee satisfaction and fostering a culture of continuous learning.

Skills that matter

As technology advances, human skills will continue to be critical. We support our employees in developing personal skills that form the basis for developing new digital, data and sustainability skills.

New trends, technologies and sustainability practices are changing the way we live and work. Adopting a continuous learning mindset will allow us to be prepared for what comes next.

Effective knowledge management, in accordance with ISO 30401, helps increase innovation and improve customer relationships because ideas can be easily communicated to everyone, and creates powerful collaborative effects when different cultures come together and share assets.

Success Factors

To achieve our goals and ensure the effectiveness of our learning initiatives, we focus on the following key success factors:

  • Identifying competency needs: We clearly understand the qualifications and skills our employees need to perform their tasks safely, productively, and effectively.
  • Investing in learning: We strategically invest in the systematic education and training of our employees, enabling them to develop both professionally and personally.
  • Applying new skills: We leverage the enhanced or newly acquired competencies of our employees by assigning them tasks and responsibilities that match their skills.
  • Practical orientation: We ensure that all training programs are practice-oriented, accessible, and easy to understand, enabling employees to immediately apply their knowledge and skills.
  • Providing resources: We allocate adequate resources—personnel, material, financial, and time—to deliver high-quality and effective training.
  • Leadership support: Leaders at all levels play an active role in fostering a supportive learning environment and encouraging employees in their development efforts.

Learning at home

The pandemic has been a catalyst in preparing our employees for the future. This inspired us to rethink our vision for training our employees. The transition to a remote work model during the COVID pandemic has allowed us to launch training programs at home. Our instructor-led webinars and self-paced online courses have provided our employees with ample opportunities for further learning and self-development. In addition, we encourage our employees to become certified in new emerging technologies.

Electronic learning platform

Our e-learning platform provides another learning experience that we use at Schmidt & Schmidt. With the help of a specialized online platform, our employees can study in their spare time.

The e-learning platform offers all compliance courses for employees and partners. This system is also used to regularly assess the skills of our employees.

Professional development in society

We strive to support both our own employees and the communities around us. Our partnerships with governments, businesses and non-profits help build skills and help build a more just and inclusive society. Our employees play a key role in this process, voluntarily donating their time and skills.
