Budco views training as a critical factor in its success. Consequently, we invest a significant and greater-than-average amount of resources in training. We do this for the following reasons:

We do this for the following reasons:

• Training allows us to keep our skills sharp in our areas of competency
• Training allows us to do quality work
• Training allows us to meet and exceed customer expectations
• Training allows us to provide employees with the opportunity to continuously learn
• Training will help us achieve our Vision

Budco's Human Resources, Training and Development department is dedicated to this cause. We provide initial orientation training, general Budco corporate training, and job-specific training. We utilize in-house instructors, individual coaching, and outside consultants and experts.

Budco University

The objective of Budco University is to provide learning opportunities for Budco staff members that will allow us to excel in our professional careers and to deliver tangible business improvements. As "execution specialists," Budco staff members must remain on the cutting edge in order to fulfill our clients' needs and uphold the Budco mission and vision statements. Budco has continually supported training and learning initiatives. These programs have included corporate, supervisory and leader training. In 2001, we launched Budco University in partnership with Wayne State University thanks to a generous grant from the Michigan Economic Development Corporation (MEDC). This has allowed us to further develop an educational foundation for our staff members and provides us the knowledge needed in our current and anticipated business environment.
