Your Growth = Our Growth
A career at Edelman means constant growth. You have the opportunity to learn not only from on-the-job experiences, but also through mentorship and career development programs and specially curated online training modules. We support you in a number of ways to help ensure your personal and professional development:
- Edelman Learning Institute (ELI): Deepen your business acumen, project management and creative thinking skills, among many others, through our “virtual campus” that supports lifelong development and social learning.
- The Growth Academy: This three-month, online and offline learning sprint is designed to reflect the realities of Edelman's business goals: to solve for clients in more impactful and integrated ways. The competency-based program builds knowledge and skills through a blended learning approach focused on Experience (Solving client challenges, on-the-job learning); Education (Instructor-led training, e-learning, and self-directed learning); and, Exposure (Coaching, feedback, and mentoring). The Growth Academy faculty feature a combination of internal senior leaders, wellness experts and innovative external speakers focused on immersive, experience-based, action learning. Employees leave with a new set of tools, stronger global relationships, and a targeted action plan to help them meet their personal goals.
- Mentor Programs:Most of our global offices offer a mentorship (and reverse mentorship) program, connecting experienced employees with junior colleagues.
- Career Development: Varied experiences across sectors and practices, and even geographies, can help you grow and develop your skills and expertise. These can include role changes, our Global Mobility initiative, a secondment to another department, a specialized training program, switching accounts to develop desired skills, taking a sabbatical or working on a pro-bono project.
- Tuition Reimbursement: When you grow, we do too. So if you satisfactorily complete pre-approved educational studies at accredited colleges, universities, and professional organizations, we’ll reimburse you.
