Learning Organization
Developing the full potential of our people is a strategic business priority.
Our fundamental business processes are designed to support ongoing learning and improvement. At Alcoa, we share knowledge and insights so we can continuously improve the way we work.
The learning process begins the day you join and continues throughout your career, both on the job and in classroom settings. We help you develop the critical skills you'll need to succeed in your job, enhance your career and achieve greater job satisfaction. We strive to provide individualized training structured to maximize your learning opportunities and potential.
We also encourage you to take charge of your career through focused developmental experiences appropriate for your individual needs and aspirations. These might include special assignments, self-directed learning, or support for continuing education. In our learning organization, each individual is empowered not only to develop new skills, but to share knowledge and teach other team members as well.
In addition, we offer extensive support to qualified individuals who actively seek out new career challenges and directions. This support might include developmental assignments, an annual development plan, ongoing coaching and mentoring. We are committed to providing the variety of work experiences necessary for advancement in our company, consistent with each individual's goals and abilities.
Equally important, because experience in our company is valued at Alcoa, there is a bias toward internal candidates for advancement opportunities. Managers at every level are held accountable for:- identifying their high-potential people
- giving opportunities for growth in varied disciplines, businesses and locations
- taking the risk of providing "stretch" assignments sooner, rather than later
- helping people succeed by providing ongoing feedback, training and support
