TECH LEARNING

There are two primary types of instructor-led training sessions:

• Technical Training: Learn best practices from experienced technical practitioners in areas such as Data Science, Software Development, Cyber Security, and Product and Project Management. Many of the sessions include hands-on activities.
• Business Skills Training: Develop essential soft skills in areas like Presentation, Communication, Management and Leadership Development through interactive sessions.

Engineers can take advantage of self-paced learning opportunities with content from leading eLearning platforms, as well as internal eLearning courses tailored for Rakuten.

Engineers can obtain training from external vendors and acquire relevant IT certifications, empowering themselves to advance their careers.

Employees with similar skills or backgrounds are encouraged to proactively share knowledge, for example by forming “study groups.” In cross-functional teams and employee networks, opportunities to deepen knowledge and experience together are expanding through dialogue and collaboration with members outside of day-to-day work. Through this kind of social learning facilitated by these teams and networks, employees learn from one another to enhance their skills, fostering a corporate culture that supports the growth of the organization as a whole.

Engineers can enhance their training capabilities through the Train the Trainer program, where they can refine their skills and become a trainer or speaker for Tech Talks, sharing their expertise with others across Rakuten.
