All learning counts at Walmart. One way we help our people grow is by ensuring they get credit for learning foundational skills while on the job, giving them more options and flexibility to build the kind of career they want. I love the story of Bonnie Boop, a Walmart people lead from Huntsville, Alabama. Using our Live Better U benefit, she returned to college in her 40s. Not only did she graduate with a bachelors from Southern New Hampshire University, she was able to apply some of her operations training through Walmart Academy as college credit toward her degree. And a great thing about Bonnie’s story? She’s one of thousands of Walmart associates just like her. As this article outlines, our goal is to build a pipeline of talent from entry-level through the C-suite, creating lifelong, meaningful careers: https://lnkd.in/g-zKbjNw
