Your personal growth journey

Continuous learning throughout your career

Feel the impact of a full-fledged learning culture 

In a rapidly changing world, the expiration date of our knowledge and skills approaches faster and faster each day. Keeping up with the latest (technical) developments while upgrading your soft skills is key, especially as consultancy knows so many different areas of expertise. 

At BDO, we focus on a continuous cycle of learning. You’re given every chance at any time to learn new things and feel supported while doing so.  

In essence, it’s about the opportunity to grow in many different ways:  

  • on the job, with feedback from your colleagues, clients or manager 
  • by creating your own development plan, backed up by a strong framework 
  • during trainings and workshops, to deepen and broaden your expertise & skills

We know it sounds cliché, but there’s no one-size-fits-all when it comes to learning at BDO. You make the most out of your learning journey based on your ambitions, strengths and future plans. As too much choice is never good, we’ll guide you in making the right decisions in a structured way.  


Growth Learning

“As a certified accountant and tax advisor, I need to complete 40 hours of training each year. BDO contributes to these trainings, which is fantastic. And there’s also BDO Academy, a separate institute that helps us develop both hard and soft skills.”
“In our first week, we received extensive training on consulting skills and BDO Advisory. The range of training opportunities is broad, and we’re encouraged to take full advantage of them.”

Feel supported by a strong framework

To support you in constantly developing your expertise, BDO’s learning framework is based on 5 major components: 

BDO Colleagues

People

Get the guidance of your dedicated people manager,
in-house experts and coaches at the right time during
your learning journey.


Using the benefits of technology

Get access to a wide array of learning platforms
to give you the extra push you need to grow, whenever you need it. 

Evidence-based learning

Reading dull PowerPoints of 200+ slides won’t

With learning methods based on how your brain 
works, you can maximalise your training insights
and make your learning as impactful as possible.

Learning improvements powered by data

We constantly improve our learning offering based on the specific needs and insights of every business practice. 

Top notch Learning

Top-notch learning experience

We help you make the most out of every learning initiative with timely and clear communication, follow-up and by implementing the right processes.

Thanks to these components, you can maximise the return of your time spent learning and be part of a cultivating learning culture. With our full support along the way. 

In the end, you make the decisions along your learning journey at BDO, we’ll help you make them count. 

“I started at BDO as a Senior Manager and after a few years, I stepped into the Partner journey. During this process, I have received a lot of support from my People Manager. The Partner training not only gave me valuable insights into my job but also into the different personalities of colleagues and clients.”
“At BDO, there's a strong culture of learning and growth. Mistakes are part of the journey, and everyone gets the support they need through continuous training from day one. And of course, the collaboration among colleagues makes all the difference—it’s the blend of theory and peer support that truly helps you grow.”
