Experience Exposure Education: Citi's Approach to
Connected Learning
What is Connected Learning?
Connected Learning identifies that your job and workplace are your principal development ground and
stresses the importance of informal, experiential and social learning. This is underpinned by
traditional/formal training and resources.

We learn mainly through ‘doing’. Most of which comes from our daily work – through new and
challenging experiences, through opportunities to practice, and through reflection. We also learn
through exchanging ideas and stories with others. Personal networks are critical in our learning and
development.

Why Connected Learning?


Work, business and technology are changing faster than ever before. So today, more than ever, your
Who We Are ability and willingness to learn from experience and from those around them is the foundation for
————— success.

The Three E’s Citi refers to this as Experience, Exposure, Education:


Embracing diverse teams, ideas and possibilities helps us drive
growth and progress because it’s a key part of who we are and how
we thrive.

• Research and experience both confirm that when a company embraces diversity, the most
talented people are not just attracted to joining the company, but are also much more
productive and motivated to stay. Maintaining a truly diverse environment has been proven to
be a leading indicator of the quality of our culture in addition to being an effective way of
connecting to an equally diverse client base.

• At Citi, our employees reflect the remarkable range of cultures and perspectives of our clients
across the more than 160 countries and jurisdictions where we do business – a powerful
advantage that combines global insights with deep local knowledge. We recognize that unique
Who We Are individuals, collaborative teams and inclusive leaders have far-reaching impact and are the
engines of new ideas. It’s our willingness to embrace the richness of our diverse teams, ideas
—————
and possibilities that drives our growth and progress.
Diversity and
Inclusion
Citi values a work environment where diversity is embraced, where
people are promoted on their merits, and where people treat each
other with dignity and respect as they work together to achieve more
