We invest in your professional development, because it is your future – and our capital. That’s why we attach great importance to training and continuing education. With a wide range of continuing education programs, we offer you attractive prospects and career opportunities. We promote your strengths so that you can contribute and use your strengths effectively in the mandate work. For this task, you can develop skills and competencies in our training formats that match your professional and personal development. Digital, in presence and hybrid, for example on rhetoric, technical English, client meetings or strategy.

#moreSupport

Of course, we will support you in acquiring your specialist lawyer’s title and, if necessary, in completing other professional examinations. Our HR processes and decisions are transparent and your potential career paths are proactively pointed out to you by your direct managers in discussions. In addition to our training structures, you can take advantage of the wide range of training opportunities offered by KPMG AG Wirtschaftsprüfungsgesellschaft. These include, for example, the Talents@EmergingLeader program, which provides targeted support for the personal development of colleagues with outstanding potential through exclusive training, networking events and coaching formats. Or the Senior Grading Track, which prepares prospective partners for the next stage of their career with extensive feedback as well as special and individual development measures.

#moreAbroad

In addition to our customized training program Growing@KPMG Law, our established formats for your professional and personal development include the mobility program Legal Trek. With this program, we send senior associates and managers with outstanding performance to a three-month stay abroad at an international KPMG location. This makes our international orientation and cooperation with the global KPMG network in 155 countries very tangible. And lead to unforgettable experiences, because the “trekkers” not only learn about the legal practices of the respective country, but also expand their horizons on a private level. For interdisciplinary collaboration, it is important to think outside the box and to be able to take unfamiliar approaches.

And we encourage all our employees to use the Task Ticker@Law, an internal platform for work distribution. This not only ensures that workload peaks can be matched with free capacities, but also that our employees get to know new areas and exciting projects at the same time. Because that is an important goal for us: to promote professional and personal development through direct networking with other colleagues and teams.
