At the core of its mission, Amazon believes in providing all employees with opportunities to learn new skills and advance their careers. In 2012, the company introduced Career Choice, an education and training benefit designed to help eligible hourly employees acquire new skills and create pathways to careers in high-demand roles.
This initiative is particularly beneficial for frontline workers, who often face challenges such as limited career paths, inflexible scheduling, and physically demanding tasks, resulting in high turnover rates. By offering top-notch skills training, the Career Choice program not only empowers its 700,000+ eligible hourly employees globally with better career prospects but also helps reduce turnover and cultivates a more committed workforce.
Since 2021, the Career Choice team has been partnering with Correlation One to develop and roll out customized technical training programs across the following areas:
These technical tracks aim to equip Amazonʼs hourly employees with sought-after skills, enabling them to fill data and digital roles within the company and the broader AWS ecosystem.
