London, 30 April 2018 – Devoteam (Euronext Paris: DVT) the international digital transformation consultancy, is proud to announce the EMEA roll out of its Knowledge Up Programme.

Thanks to the success of its strategic plan Scale!, Devoteam, the only true EMEA pure-player in Digital Transformation, has set an ambitious recruitment target of over 1,500 people for 2018 alone. The Knowledge Up Programme plays a key role in achieving this target, with 30% of all Devoteam recruitment reserved for high potential juniors and recent graduates entering this programme.

Successfully launched in France in 2017, expansion of the programme was the next logical step, as Devoteam COO Sébastien Chevrel explains: “Development and training are part of our DNA, and after the initial success of the Knowledge Up Programme in France, an international roll out was inevitable. By making the Knowledge Up Programme available in the UK, Belgium, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Germany, and the Middle East, we’re arming our consultants across EMEA with the most powerful tools on the market so they can win their Digital Battles!”

Supported by a career manager, participants in the Knowledge Up Programme benefit from an accelerated and solid career path, to galvanise more their skill acquisition in parallel with their dynamic client projects.

Spotlight on the Cloud

After initial training on the fundamentals of Cloud, candidates choose their speciality: Public Cloud or Private Cloud.

On the Public Cloud track, candidates train to become certified architects on AWS, Azure or Google Cloud technology in their first and second years of the programme. In their third year, candidates can then expand their knowledge in a related field, e.g. linked to Data, or by being trained in the technology of another cloud provider.

Candidates choosing the Private Cloud Track are trained in Red Hat and may be trained and certified in a number of products, such as OpenStack, Ansible and Openshift.

"I joined Devoteam with the Knowledge Up Programme in September 2017, as it offers many opportunities to learn about and become certified in new technologies, such as Public Cloud (Microsoft Azure & Amazon AWS) and Automation with "Ansible". With the training I receive I can become a cloud expert in just three years."
