Training & Personal Development at BP Australia

BP have banned in-person training. Online training is no substitute. Poor.

Could be better.

Training in your role, safety training, upskill training

I've learned some handy tips about networking but in general, it's not very useful.

Very structured graduate training program with both global and local training courses/events. Opportunity for graduates to run training sessions. Online training classrooms differ in quality and are catered to UK/US time-zones.

Company adopts a 70-20-10 approach (learning and development on the job-through others-through structured courses). I would prefer more formal training through the job (rotation role). Formal training is currently facilitated by HR tag and Learning Academy. I don't think they are very qualified but they use quite extensive materials. I think the most important thing is that the sessions continue the learning process engagement. Skills picked up - self-awareness, personal leadership, strengths identification, logical and analytical reasoning, networking.

Reduced formal training with poor economy and fewer graduates, but good informal training.

Teleconference training with graduates from all around the world. Some is very useful, some is mildly useful.

Graduate program is not consistent in the quality or frequency of the formal development opportunities.

The training programs are well run but can vary based on the enthusiasm of the training coordinator.
