Career Development

Your development begins with an induction process where every effort is made to make you feel welcome. The success of Penguin depends on its staff, their happiness and their achievements. Penguin is committed to investing in staff development by providing training opportunities to meet each individual's needs, but there is no substitute for your own initiative in self-development.

Development opportunities at Penguin include:

• Induction Training
• IT Skills Training
• Health and Safety Training
• Management Development Programmes
• Professional Qualifications
• Vocational Training
• Learning Library

As a Penguin employee you are also a 'Pearson' employee. Developing its people is a key part of Pearson's strategy to become the best employer in the world and essential for its continued success; talented people create the ideas, words and images upon which the success of all our companies is based.

With this in mind, Pearson has recently established a Management Development department to focus entirely on the development needs of our people. This has initiated a range of exciting and challenging new programmes for everyone across Pearson, from senior executives to editors, finance controllers to camera operators.

You can be sure that at whatever level you join Pearson, your development will be one of its priorities, whether this means sponsoring you to do an MBA, moving you across the company or sending you on a range of skills programmes.

Pearson aims to grow its talent so that, though we are all equipped to leave, we choose to stay.
