Education is one of the most powerful drivers of progress. At Airbus, we believe everyone is entitled to quality education, including our employees and young people worldwide. We partner with universities, schools and NGOs to increase access to education and to support programmes that inspire passion for aerospace.
The Airbus Leadership University is a global education network that provides technical and soft skills development to our employees. Its mission is to develop our people’s leadership skills by:
The University’s flagship campus is located in Toulouse, France. An additional six campuses are located close to Airbus sites around the world. And thanks to a portfolio of thousands of online programmes, the University’s reach extends to approximately 30,000 employees each year, across all functions and levels.
We strongly believe a more-educated workforce is a more-empowered workforce. Our people have access to a wealth of employee development and training opportunities. Mobility is a crucial part of this. Each year, approximately 12,000 of our people changed jobs within Airbus, moving to new departments, cities or even countries.
By participating in employee mobility programmes, our people are empowered to:
Jobs related to science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) form the backbone of our company. They are also at the core of solving many of the societal challenges the world faces. Our international programme of quality education initiatives is designed to inspire children and young adults to explore the benefits of a STEM-related career.
