What is the Workforce & Organisation Accelerate Programme Pathway?

The Workforce and Organisation pathway of the Accelerate programme is designed for talented graduates passionate about accelerating transformations across our client’s employee experience, workforce, and change programmes. We deliver this through people-led change empowering our clients to deliver transformations throughout their business.

The Accelerate Programme consists of 2 parts:

  • The Academy (circa 18 months)

Your first 3 months of the Accelerate Programme will be spent within The Institute, where you will learn core consulting skills and gain a broad understanding of everything we do at Capgemini Invent within a feed-back rich environment.

Workforce & Organisation

“As I reflect upon my time within the Accelerate Programme, I am not only incredibly proud of the vast array of skills and experience my colleagues and I have developed in 21 months, but also the profound personal growth that I have achieved. Opportunities to deliver in a range of impactful projects across multiple industries have allowed me to work hand-in-hand with C-suite clients at FTSE100 companies and gain knowledge in key areas such as strategy, operations, and technology transformation. Opportunities to take an active role in the internal development of the Invent business and its people have enabled me to invest time in learning about project management, sales, and training; and have allowed me to form meaningful connections with Invent colleagues and leaders at all levels.”

“During my time in the Institute, I participated in four internal projects. These projects spanned various domains, from leading energy deep dives for the team to creating impactful marketing content for Institute UK, promoting its contributions across Capgemini Invent. Through these experiences, I acquired skills like effective consulting, stakeholder engagement, polished presentation abilities, and adeptly managing ambiguity. The Institute offered a supportive environment with daily routines, including stand-ups and ceremonies, where individuals had the opportunity to enhance their presentation skills in front of a larger audience.”
