Written by Tallin Semerjian | Sep 10, 2019

WilsonHCG’s Technology Recruitment Certification Program is a unique learning initiative that was created in-house and offered to employees with all levels of technology recruiting experience.


 


Level 1 - Certified

All employees begin the program at this level to ensure consistent learning among all members.

Participants need to:

  • Complete all training sessions and pass all quizzes successfully
  • Attend an external technical event and pass on what they have learned to the business
  • Help to create new training materials and present these to the board
  • Pass an oral exam with the board 

 


Level 2 - Expert

Participants need to:

  • Complete additional trainings and pass all quizzes successfully

  • Attend an external technical event and bring back what they have learned to the wider business, including the senior leadership team, and host a training session with the WilsonHCG Technical Committee (TREC)

  • Help to preserve and update the training content

 


 Level 3 - Master

Participants need to:

  • Complete all training sessions and pass all quizzes successfully at Expert level
  • Attend an external technical event and pass on what they have learned to the business through a lunch & learn and/or blog/training video
  • Help to create new training materials and present these to the board
  • Gaining this highest level of achievement allows the holder to serve as a consultant and subject matter expert

Employees who have completed level 3 will have the opportunity to apply for external certifications, and will also have the chance to sit on the tech certification board.

Each level has helped to create a sustainable program that provides an evergreen learning repository for WilsonHCG employees. 

In Part Three of our series, we will talk about the impact this program has had just not on WilsonHCG, but our clients as well!
