Career Development and Training

Career Development and Training are two related processes that increase the capacity of your employees to contribute to your organization’s mission. Your challenge is to continually find ways to invest in the development of your employees while balancing the requirements of current work.

Career Development is the process by which employees strategically explore, plan, and create their future at work by designing a personal learning plan to achieve their potential and fulfill the organization’s mission requirements. Career Development is also a means to sustain a vital and effective workforce through strategic succession planning. Career Development involves continual learning, seeking opportunities, taking risks, and finding ways to contribute to the organization in a productive and motivated manner.

Training is planned, organized experiences that assist in the gaining or expansion of key competencies. These experiences are intended to build needed competencies in order to achieve mission success and performance objectives. They also help prepare individuals to take on new or expanded roles, supporting better succession planning. Goddard offers a full spectrum of Learning and Competency Development offerings.
