Graduate Coaching
It is…
Acorn's Graduate/Apprentice Development modules guide new talent through the process of transition from university life, integrating into the team and accelerating their performance and contribution to the business.
How…
Acorn's Graduate/Apprentice Development modules orientate the graduate towards the business culture ensuring that they start to make a valuable contribution as soon as possible in their career. We challenge the graduate, on the programmes and post, to take responsibility; to reflect on their placements, to take control of their career progression and opportunities. In addition, a suite of modules provide further development which fast track the graduate's competence and potential.
Why do I need it…
Drawing from Acorn's 15 years of experience of working with graduates & clients, our programmes focus on:
- Attracting: The best talent by offering quality graduate development programmes
- Retaining: Superior graduates – by offering sophisticated, advanced developmental experiences
- Aligning: Graduates/Apprentices to your business vision, displaying values and behaviours to make them successful
- Performing: Developing business skills which enable graduates to deliver speedy returns on your investment
- Progressing: Promoting them to further progress towards the latter stages of the programme, taking personal responsibility for their career.
As an example, a graduate of an Acorn programme from some 10 years ago has recently been appointed Chief Operating Officer for one of the UK's largest Construction & Infrastructure businesses.
