Welcome and Overview Welcome to our overview of KAUST internal learning programs This catalog provides information about the different types of learning programs we offer. Our programs are designed to assist participants to develop the skills, knowledge and behaviors associated with the successful delivery of work objectives. The options in this catalog have been developed to meet the learning objectives in the annual performance and learning plans, and feedback from individual departments on what they need to support staff development. We hope you find it useful. Where there is role-specific specialized learning needs that are not met by our internal programs, there are other options available. Managers can request approval for their staff to participate in a specialized learning program or event. Alternatively managers can discuss options for providing onsite and bespoke learning opportunities with their Performance and Learning Partners to address specific team or departmental needs. Many different ways to learn and develop Research shows that up to 70% of learning occurs from real life and on-the-job experiences. Activities such as working with colleagues, practicing work tasks and skills alongside someone with greater experience, and getting coaching and feedback from managers, are equally or even more powerful ways of learning and developing than formal courses and programs. Our learning framework provides other suggested ways to learn at work click here. HR Learning and Development If you don’t find what you need?
