Another focus of our activities in the financial year just ended was the implementation of a state-of-the-art learning management system – the HannoverReAcademy. This process was launched in 2014 by means of an evaluation project, followed in 2015 by the roll-out of the selected program. Since then, we have been able to offer our staff a clear overview of all internal seminar opportunities from the areas of HR and IT in the form of a training catalogue. Similarly, all booking, approval and administration processes are run using this application.

HannoverReAcademy additionally serves as the platform for operating our e-learning programmes. We have been successfully using these for a number of years in a blended learning format, i. e. in combination with face-to-face tutorials, as part of the international basic training provided to our new members of staff.

It is also pleasing to note that the launch of HannoverReAcademy has enabled us to streamline what used to be more of a patchwork of administrative processes. Henceforth, for example, a package of entry-level seminars is automatically booked for every new employee based on the experience that we have gained over the years. This is all done on a worldwide basis because our international units also have access to Hannover- ReAcademy. In this way we ensure that the standard of training given to our workforce is of a consistently high standard.
