Outward Bound
Volkswagen Group has formed partnership with The Outward Bound Trust to develop our apprentices with the key concepts of collaboration, teamwork, and customer service.
Outward Bound is a week-long residential programme designed to develop the key behaviours related to the customer-centric approach of the Volkswagen Group. During this week the apprentices carry out multiple tasks designed to build confidence, multi-tasking, collaboration, and problem-solving skills to develop the behaviours that will impact their customer’s satisfaction at work. This programme has seen some great results in the past, with the analysis showing that 85% of our apprentices have improved their customer awareness, while more than 95% have improved their self-confidence and teamwork capabilities.
"I will definitely say that there is a lot of character building that could come from this experience"
