Learning never stops and neither do we!
Our talented people benefit from access to funding, helping them to learn valuable new skills, develop their careers and make more of a difference to every life that they touch from colleagues to patients in many cases..
The importance of our brilliant scientific workforce to the growth of our business is clearly recognised. The now well established Scientific Learning and Development Fund oversee applications for scientific development, ensuring the strategic alignment of our overall business needs with the development of our employees. This has led to new collaborations resulting in scientific discovery and improvements in patient care, with new tests generating significant additional revenue for Viapath already.
At Viapath, we never stop thinking of innovative ways in which we can support our people to reach their professional goals. It is the knowledge and skill of our highly dedicated workforce that drives our collective success, enabling even more reinvestment in the future.
"By investing resources in the development of our people, we are helping them to reach their full potential and realise career aspirations, while at the same time driving our business forward and delivering the best possible customer experience for our service users and ultimately for patients.." Michelle Plange, Organisation and People Development Manager.
