The young talents start their training in various IT specialities, for example application development, system integration and software engineering, and commercial careers, including office management. Cooperative education programmes such as business informatics, IT, and software engineering are also among the training courses available at adesso.
adesso has a tradition of greeting new trainees to their respective offices with a Welcome Day. In addition to the personal welcome, the newcomers received a structured onboarding with initial insights into the adesso world as well as a practical introduction to the working methods of the various departments.
“The slogan ‘GrowTogether’ is an expression of our corporate culture: We aim to grow together while also growing closer to each other. In-depth training is a key building block, and also the best investment in the future – both for our young talents and for our company. Many of our current managers once started at adesso as trainees or students. This shows that those who start here have the best prospects for developing individually and taking on responsibility”, emphasises Kristina Gerwert, the adesso SE Executive Board member responsible for human resources.
Structured training with a focus on individual development
Training at adesso is designed to promote both professional expertise and personal skills. The combination of theoretical knowledge from vocational school or university studies and practical application at the company enables a holistic entry into the world of IT. Trainees undertake real projects, work in agile teams, and gain access to in-house and external courses – from specialist training and certifications in relevant technologies to language courses and soft skills.
One key training component is personal assistance from experienced colleagues who act as mentors. Another priority is individual support: training content and development paths are tailored to the strengths and interests of the individual talents. The aim is to lay the foundation for a long–term career at adesso, in an environment shaped by the exchange of knowledge, cooperation, and a love of innovation.
Strategic talent development as part of the corporate culture
adesso is continuously investing in training for its employees. In addition to traditional training formats, the company offers targeted support programmes for professional and personal development. To this end, adesso provides the group-wide learning platform “adgrowth”, internal learning hubs, and training courses for the ongoing development of managers.
