At AstraZeneca, we are committed to building a culture of lifelong learning across our company.

Our learning and development (L&D) strategy is underpinned by being a great place to work and delivering great employee experiences. By empowering our people to prioritise their own development, we can continually strengthen our capabilities and drive innovation, so that we can deliver life-changing medicines to patients now and in the future.





Our approach to L&D

We use the ‘3Es’ learning framework (Education, Exposure, Experience) to recognise that our people learn through different avenues. It’s through this inclusive approach to learning that we create an environment where everyone can perform at their best, grow in their role, adapt to change, and feel a sense of belonging.




Perform

We inspire our people and leaders to continuously develop the relevant skills, capabilities and behaviours needed to perform and deliver on our Bold Ambition.





Grow

We stretch and grow our diverse people and business leaders to be ready for the future through increasing the mobility and connectivity of our talent.





Adapt

We prioritise our business and people to ensure we have the organisational and leadership agility needed now, and can adapt to the future needs of people, society, and the planet.





Belong

We create boundaryless development opportunities to drive business impact, create a sense of belonging, and engage citizens and communities outside our company.
