On September 14, we held a graduation event in Regina to celebrate our Safeway store management trainees (SMT) and department management trainees (DMT) who successfully completed the 2023 Corporate Nourish U Management Training Program.
Let’s hear it for ….
But like any graduation, career development doesn’t stop there. Each graduate was provided with the tools to create an individual development plan and are encouraged to always have an area of focus as they progress through their careers at Safeway.
Are you considering taking this career leap? There’s no better way to be inspired than hearing from a recent grad about why you should invest in yourself.
“The program helped me to step out of my comfort zone, to be more open, and to gain the confidence I needed to succeed. The lessons we learned have made the work I do easier. I’m also very grateful for the excellent support from our instructors, which helped me a lot. Overall, it was an amazing experience that I would definitely recommend to others! I want to thank my team again for believing in me and for giving me this opportunity.” — Liubov Sorokin, DMT Graduate
Congratulations once again to each graduate! We couldn’t be prouder to have you as part of the Safeway family, and can’t wait to see all that you accomplish.
