Training & Personal Development at WSP Australia

There is no training that will help someone on Project.

Limited opportunities for training. The training I have done is very basic and boring, it's not detailed and doesn't really improve my skillset or understanding, just reiterates what I most often already know.

The graduate program is not as highly structured as I understand many other large companies to be. There's still plenty of training and opportunities for development.

Did not have a senior person for several months.

There are a variety of training programmes and company funded Project Management training (internal), with scope to continue to external accredited PM training

Multiple training videos/quizzes, field works briefings and professional courses

Graduates program is excellent and is currently running a few webinars to try and build some skills in the current grads.

Mainly informal training. mainly design skills, learnt along the way. at the start of a job the manager will give an example of computations and go from there with any question along the way.

Training is great, and there are plenty of opportunities to further your business or technical skills.

Good focus on training (business priority), but poor execution. Formal training is a waste of time generally. Informal on the job learning opportunities are available if you seek them out.

Hands on learning in the field is best, and doing it yourself as someone explains how to works for me. I have learned time management, project management, business skills-dealing with subcontractors.

Need basis and self driven

Received some small formal training in old position, but everything else has been self taught

Been working for 10 months and still no formal training has been allocated to me even though I need it for some of the work I do.

There is internal training but also senior engineers willing to put time in.

Grad workshop was a good opportunity although the content could have been more interactive.

There are some training courses available for those who choose to pursue them

The graduate program covers a comprehensive list of topics which helped me shape my career. I have picked up useful communication and practical engineering skills, which are very unlike the technical/academic focus I was used to at the University. I am better at assessing the time expenditure for projects, and I am able to balance the time spent on learning v.s. the time spent on getting work done.

I am part of an official graduate program and have had many additional opportunities to attend further training courses.

Grad program - networking skills, skills for BD Online training - flexible training which offers anything you can think of
