Employee Self Development
The internet is a key part of Self-Development.
Saudi Aramco has a long, proud history of developing its workforce. Today, in the age of complex information and technological challenges, only organizations that learn and adapt quickly will survive. It is therefore critical that we approach the future with new development strategies. One of the most effective learning methods is self-development.
Self-development is a process through which employees take personal responsibility to improve themselves for business and personal purposes, utilizing company and non-company provided resources and support. One of the main advantages of self-development is that it offers choice.
The company provides a wide range of resources to help employees learn more about their jobs and how to perform more effectively. E-learning initiatives form the majority of these resources. E-Learning supports two critical Saudi Aramco initiatives: Self-development and Competencies assessment and development.
E-Learning has proved a cost-effective way to reach learners company-wide and is a major strategy for developing Saudi Aramco's human resources.
Some of the tools used in self-development include the following:
Corporate Learning Centers located in various Company areas of operation
Online Training courses
Online Management training courses
Online Libraries
Membership in Professional Societies
