Learning and Development
"We achieve what we do because of our people. We choose them very carefully, and just as important, they choose us very carefully”
Maurice Flanagan, Executive Vice Chairman - Emirates Airline & Group
People are the heart and soul of the Emirates Group, therefore recruiting, training and retaining high calibre people is one of the core values of the business.
In recognition of the importance of self-development and increasing knowledge and skills, Emirates operates high calibre training programmes which are accessible to all individuals across the Group.
These courses are facilitated through a variety of mediums including classroom based, on-the-job, online (eLearning), practical assessment, simulation, project based or a combination of these options (blended).
A network of Learning Resource Centres (LRC) exists in various Emirates Group buildings in Dubai, providing an environment for self or group-based study away from the busy workplace. In addition to this, ‘My Learning Zone’ is the Emirates Group learning portal. It provides a one-stop location for accessing training and development information and for online learning courses for all employees.
Our management team encourages staff growth and development, for outstanding individuals, progression can be quite rapid within departments (subject to positions available). Opportunities also exist for individuals to move across into other departments if that is the direction that one chooses to take.
