Balfin Training Academy – A Balfin Group’s extraordinary enterprise in training and professional development of employees

The Balfin Group is among the largest private sector employers in Albania, and its position on the labor market makes it a very important actor and example to follow. In Balfin Group companies work over 4000 people, not including subcontractors working for Group projects.



EVERY EMPLOYEE IN OUR GROUP IS AN IMPORTANT CAPITAL IN WHICH THE COMPANY INVESTS IN ORDER TO ENSURE THE DEVELOPMENT AND THE NESSECARY SUPPORT FOR PERFORMANCE REALIZATION AND PERSONAL CAREER OBJECTIVES.

The new and modern approach that Balfin has adopted in its training strategy brings to the attention the review and development of new policies in terms of vocational formation and staff competence.

Balfin Group is widely and massively invested in training and professional development of Group employees for all levels. Employees training, as one of the main points for their development but also for ensuring their quality of work, is realized through the training center. Balfin Training Academy brings together experts from our companies, professors and technicians in the academic field as well as professional trainers from home and abroad. Professional companies are contracted to provide their services for technical-professional training or training in leadership, management skills and other specific areas.

Over the last few months, Balfin’s Training Academy has developed a series of trainings on topics like “Win-Win Negotiations”, “Creative Thinking & Decision Making”, “Team Creation & Effective Management”, “B2B Consultative Selling Skills” and many more.

The training of employees aims to create, maintain and develop valuable assets, competencies and professional employees, capable of making valuable contributions in their professional life and in the environment where they perform their duties.

Training and employee development provides a basis for knowledge, skills and professional values that enables them to develop continuously and adapt to changes throughout their professional life. Balfin Group brings together professionals from different fields combining experience, professionalism and energy to efficiently respond to any challenge.

The labor market in Albania is naturally impacted by economic development in the country. According to recent studies, the current level of workforce in our country highlights the need for investment in human resources to adapt them to the development of the labor market. This means that jobseekers’ professional skills are in line with labor market requirements for a highly qualified workforce. Training is an opportunity to expand the knowledge base of all employees, but some employers see development costs as cost. Only few Albanian companies invest seriously in development programs for their employees. And in this part, Balfin has again a competitive edge in the labor market, making it a favorite employer.

LEARNING THROUGH THE ENTIRE LIFE IS PART OF THE BALFIN GROUP CORPORATE CULTURE.
This is only the beginning. The Academy will continue to organize training for all levels of Balfin Group employees, providing a unique opportunity for career development.
