Our learning & development initiatives
Join our team and benefit from best practice learning and development initiatives designed to help you grow, adapt, and succeed here at the HPRA.
Immersive induction programme for all new employees
Our induction programme immerses you in our values and core practices, introducing you to key aspects of our culture and mission. This helps you feel connected from the start.
Diverse skill development opportunities
Our development programmes offer diverse learning opportunities. Our blended approach ensures a rich and engaging learning experience, giving you the tools to expand your skills and achieve your career goals.
Leadership training to empower our teams
Our managers inspire and lead their teams. New managers participate in New Manager Training, focusing on 'People' and 'Operations' management. We also offer advanced development opportunities to continually strengthen leadership capabilities, enabling our managers to lead with confidence and impact.
Insightful departmental webinars
Our work is dynamic and far-reaching. We run webinars where employees share the day-to-day role of their department, highlight key projects, and discuss current challenges. This provides insight into the broader impact of our work.
Support for further education
We support and fund externally provided courses and nationally recognised qualifications. These opportunities help you expand your knowledge and open new career pathways.
Continuous performance development
Growth is a partnership. Our performance development programme fosters two-way communication to support your performance and development needs. This approach is embedded within HPRA’s continuous improvement approach — learn, adapt, and improve.
By embedding growth at the heart of our strategy, HPRA ensures every employee can reach their potential, contribute to a high-performance culture, and make a meaningful impact.
