Training and Development: Walmart and Sam's Club
Training and Development
Training and development isn’t a one-time event at Walmart and Sam’s Club. It’s an integral and ongoing part of an associate’s life.
Each associate begins with an in-depth personal orientation. This is how we introduce you to our history and culture and paint a picture of the roles and responsibilities you’ll take on when you join the operations of the world’s largest retailer.
After orientation, each division has its own specific and detailed Training and Development programs that give you the knowledge and tools to succeed in our company, chart your own career path and accomplish your most ambitious goals. These are just some of the ways we’re Making Better Possible with opportunities that matter to you most.
MANAGER TRAINING
We offer many training opportunities to help managers sharpen their leadership skills, advance through the company and keep their teams’ morale and passion for fulfilling our mission running strong.
Here are just a few opportunities: * Assistant Management Training (AMT) is a management-training program open to all salaried Walmart Stores U.S. field associates. You must apply and be selected to take advantage of this program. * The Walton Institute provides an educational environment for Walmart leaders from around the world to stretch themselves and explore our unique company culture and how to foster that culture. * The 12-week Manager in Training (MIT) program at Sam’s Club is designed to expose trainees to the various operations within, allowing them to rotate through the company. Upon completion, trainees may apply for an Assistant Manager position.
