Learning+and+Growth+Perspective

Learning and Growth Perspective Boeing recognizes the strength of their competitive advantage comes from the ingenuity of their employees. To continuously encourage new and different sources of ideas, Boeing encourages diversity in the work place, offers graduation placements, internships, and provides scholarship funds to some Historically Black American colleges and universities (HBCU) and Minority Institutions [1].

To stay ahead of the changing technologies and industry, Boeing believes in lifelong learning in the company. Boeing encourages their employees to train within their current positions to complete degree programs. Employees may take advantage of the tuition reimbursement program if they take courses that will show to enhance their job performances or career growth in the company. Boeing also continuously trains and refreshes employees by offering webcasts, on the job training, and online course [2]. The training are provided to employees who need to perform new work assignments, and formal training courses are offered when specific government or safety regulations must be met.
