Your Development
Take ownership of your career
Is there ever a point in your career when you stop learning? Not in our experience. The opportunity to learn new things each and every day is one of the benefits of our business environment and our firm. By being open to new learning and experiences, we grow both as individuals and as an organisation.
Ernst & Young recognises the value of investing in focused and rapid technical and personal development, driven by our business needs - development that continues throughout your career so that you can build on your strengths to fulfil your potential in the firm and increase your value in the market place.
At Ernst & Young learning is also about ‘on-the-job’ development through your day-to-day work experiences. This way, you can apply what you learn and embed your development quickly. To support this, the firm provides access to practical experience as well as classroom theory including access to quality secondments with clients or internally, both in the UK or overseas. This is in addition to developmental coaching, mentoring opportunities and work shadowing.
In our 2006 Global People Survey, 60% of our people claimed, "I have meaningful development opportunities within the firm," which is an increase of 7% from 2005.
