Ready to boost your career?

The continuous development of our employees and internal professional mobility are at the heart of our growth strategy.

BNP Paribas in Canada offers all its employees a vast catalog of training opportunities and has proudly held the Certificate of Quality for Training Initiatives for four years.

Whether on site, online or externally, the employees who are part of our dynamic platform benefit from various training formats, for example:

Webinars: open to as many people as possible, they are often very short and aim to raise awareness on a subject or deliver a practical and concise toolbox.
Virtual classes: in small groups and very interactive, their format varies greatly depending on the theme. The goal is always to simulate a face-to-face experience.
Courses: they allow you to go into more depth on the subject. The training is split into a series of sessions spread over time to allow participants to assimilate, and experiment between sessions.
Online catalogs: they allow on-demand training. Immediately available, they give you the opportunity to follow a training course at your own pace.
