Big Industries Academy
Big Industries Academy
If you grow as an employee, the company grows as well. That’s why we decided to setup the Big Industries Academy. The Academy is a platform for continuous learning by sharing expertise and knowledge within the team.
Learning Paths
For each team member we offer an individualized Learning Path taking into account the needs for the current role and the skills he or she will require in the future to fulfill their career goals. Both hard skills, like working towards a specific vendor certification or learning a new technology, as well as soft skills (e.g. effective communication, time management,…) are part of the curriculum.
The individual Learning Path is broken into levels. In order to complete a level, the trainee needs to meet specific learning objectives or perform a specific task to advance to the next level. Progressing to the next level is awarded with a Big Industries Academy Belt.
All employees have access to Cloud environments which they can use to practice new technologies or just try out new things.
Big Industries Academy Days
Every three months we gather together at an off-site location to share our wisdom and feed our family feel. These team events can be adventurous or we can just relax, cook together and build comradery. Having fun while you work and working with people that you enjoy being around is what matters to us.
Big Industries Academy Meetup
We want to be generous with sharing our knowledge, also to the outside world. We will start a Meetup group with the goal to create a platform for people to learn new things, find support, step up, get out of their comfort zone, acquire new skills and share their expertise.
Number 1 trusted advisor in data solutions
By sharing our wisdom between ourselves and the outside world we will definitely become the number 1 trusted advisor in data solutions.
