Training and Development

Rider Levett Bucknall Academy

Rider Levett Bucknall has continually maintained a commitment to developing its employees to help everyone reach their fullest potential, dating back to its early origins. The Rider Levett Bucknall Academy is our vehicle for all training and development initiatives within the company.

The principles behind the Academy is to promote a single group culture, demonstrated by professional dealings, technical excellence, world class customer service, commercial and financial innovation and the absolute accountability of all individuals.

The objectives are to:

  • Ensure that everyone is given the training, education and development opportunities they need to enable them to fulfil the requirements of their jobs.
  • Ensure that all training, education and development is linked to the needs of the business. Motivate people to make the most of all the opportunities offered to enhance skills and knowledge.

The philosophy

We believe that training is a two-way commitment:

  • Commitment from Rider Levett Bucknall to provide training, which fulfils the objectives as set out below.
  • Commitment from each employee to make the most of the opportunities offered.

Academy details

We regard our future success as being very dependant on the continuing development of all employees at all levels. We encourage our employees to take advantage of educational opportunities available and a large proportion proceed to membership of professional bodies.

Personal development is also encouraged in less formal ways. For example, offices frequently participate in charitable events, supporting local events and becoming actively involved in schemes such as inner city reading projects.

Meanwhile a wide variety of social and sports events across the country help to reinforce the many friendships forged day by day through working in an atmosphere of mutual regard and co-operation. Local achievements such as major business wins are rightly celebrated, with both individual and team performance duly noted and rewarded.
