Learning & development

At Columbus, learning is part of your career journey. From developing new skills to learning from the people around you, we create opportunities to build your knowledge, grow your confidence, and shape your future.

Learn from experience

Our people are encouraged to develop their skills, explore new areas and put what they learn into practice. Hear from our colleagues about their experience completing courses through our internal academy and how it supported their careers.

Learning from each other

Some of the best learnings come from the people around us. Across Columbus, colleagues share their knowledge and experience by becoming trainers, coaches and mentors, helping others build their skills and confidence while developing their own.

Building skills for the future

Our Columbus Academy gives our people dedicated opportunities to build the skills, confidence and knowledge they need to grow throughout their careers.

From communication and leadership to personal effectiveness and other essential soft skills, the Academy supports our people at different stages of their careers. It's designed to complement the technical expertise you build in your role, helping you become a more confident professional and prepare for what comes next.

Because learning at Columbus isn't just about what you know today, it's about giving you the skills to shape where your career goes next.

I really enjoyed the Trusted Advisor session. The trainers in the academy created an inclusive and fun environment where you felt safe sharing your thoughts and experiences.

The feedback course was insightful and well structured. The bite-sized format made the content easy to follow and engaging.

Learning as technology changes

At Columbus, learning also happens through trying new things. AI is part of how we work, rather than a side project. Our AI Champions test ideas in their own teams, share what works, and help others learn along the way. We also test AI in our own work before taking it to our customers.
