The ECIT Academy
At ECIT, our employees and their expertise are our most important resource. As a people business, we view continuous learning and development not only as a responsibility but also as a competitive advantage.
To attract, retain, and empower skilled professionals, we have made structured learning a core element of our strategy, and the ECIT Academy is the cornerstone of this effort.
ECIT Academy organises four programmes:
- ECIT Talent
- ECIT Associate
- ECIT Advisory
- ECIT Leadership
Each programme is designed to enhance collaboration across countries and divisions, and to strengthen our common identity building one ECIT, not just a group of companies.
All programmes are centred around operational relevance. Participants don’t just learn how they understand why. This approach fosters deeper engagement and improved knowledge in day-to-day operations. Our training sessions emphasise practical learning, active participation, and peer-to-peer exchange. Presentation skills, business insight, and confidence-building are core components, ensuring participants are equipped to deliver value both internally and to our customers.
Academy sessions bring together colleagues from different entities, creating a dynamic learning environment and supporting cultural integration across our international footprint. The networking opportunities are as important as the content itself, helping to break down silos and create long-term professional connections.
Importantly, all ECIT Academy programmes are designed and delivered by internal experts professionals from within ECIT. This ensures that the training is directly applicable and highly relevant and fosters internal recognition and knowledge sharing.
We are proud of the progress made and remain committed to investing in the development of our people. When our employees grow, ECIT grows with them.
