FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
1. What training can I expect as a new hire?
A&M views the learning and development of our employees as a strategic priority. We provide both formal and informal opportunities for our people to learn and grow. Our learning and development strategy aligns to our Competency Guide and Learning Ladder, which is a collection of key skills identified for each career level within the organization.
Our formal curriculum is comprised of classroom, virtual classroom, eLearning and self-study courses. Across all levels within the organization, our program emphasizes both the development of core consulting skills and functional / industry expertise including supply chain, CFO services, change management, and more.
