Developing logistics expertise at the cutting edge
The Logistics Academy offers learners and employees a practical environment in which to develop logistics skills, understand logistics processes and expand their knowledge in a targeted manner.
Education
Logistician EFZ/EBA and adult education
A central task of the Logistics Academy is the basic vocational training of EBA/EFZ logistics specialists. The task includes recruitment, support and training - right up to the crowning achievement of a successful qualification procedure.
In addition, the Academy team is committed to promoting adult education for qualified professional qualifications with the aim of counteracting the increasing shortage of skilled workers.
Project work
The Academy supports new customer projects with process definition, taking into account the Galliker standards, and trains employees prior to go-live. In the event of deviations, the Academy carries out process analyses on behalf of the logistics management and then initiates corrective measures.
Introduction for new employees
Before new employees start their day-to-day work in logistics, they receive comprehensive preparation at the Logistics Academy. The induction program includes, among other things:
Getting to know the systems used, learning how to operate and use them in day-to-day business
Practical exercises for the use of handheld scanners, mobile devices and other technical aids
Understanding of logistical processes, structured procedures and efficient working methods
Instruction on occupational safety, hazard identification and correct behavior in the warehouse environment
Support for warehouse logistics in the area of hardware and software
The Logistics Academy supports employees in the logistics departments with software and hardware issues and plays a central role in their market-oriented further development. The Academy has its own test environment for simulating new processes and technical aids with the aim of continuously optimizing the material flow and testing innovations. New hardware and software for intralogistics are configured and tested here before they go into practical use.
Knowledge management
Effective knowledge management is essential in order to remain successful in the long term. The Logistics Academy maintains its own Wikipedia for employees. This centrally documents information on software and hardware as well as processes. Supplemented by a modern e-learning platform, knowledge is not only secured, but actively communicated and further developed. In this way, the Logistics Academy creates the basis for retaining know-how internally, quickly training new talent and positioning the company for the future.
