Learning from the best

“Only METRO can teach METRO” is the motto at the House of Training. The company’s own experienced experts teach the participants practical and theoretical know-how. From knowledge about products and merchandise to purchasing and customer needs – the participants’ existing skills are networked and enhanced using best-practice examples from the various international group companies.

The House of Training prepares all employees on all management levels for the challenges of the international self-service wholesale. The aim is to improve their skills further and establish a consistent high standard of qualifications around the world.

Three-stage program

Training is divided into three stages: start, build and grow. The program involves preparing participants for management duties, teaching practical know-how in special areas of expertise and developing their personal skills. The work of the training platform is based primarily on the following principles:

• Orientation around best practices
• Combination of theory and practice
• Results-driven work
