Learning is a continual process. As your career progresses, there are opportunities to enhance your professional and personal skills. A formal process, known as Employee Performance and Development Planning, helps you and your supervisor in planning your development to meet both business and personal goals.
The Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure recognizes the effectiveness of experiential learning and values "on-the-job" training as a primary means of development.
Formal training is another important avenue for gaining new skills. Each business unit within the organization has ongoing training programs that are designed specifically to maximize the performance of its employees in meeting business objectives. The Province of British Columbia Employee Learning Services taps on the expertise of external training providers and the Public Service's own functional experts to offer a wide range of courses in areas such as Leadership & Management, Finance, Human Resources, Information Technology, Personal Skills, and Safety & Health.
Other development opportunities include training sessions and seminars presented by industry or professional organizations. The Ministry also offers a program that provides financial assistance to employees pursuing courses at academic institutions.
