bp Earns Recognition for Best Certification
Program Improving Employee Retention and Promotion Rates in
Partnership With The Hackett Group and Thought Industries
The Hackett Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: HCKT), bp and Thought
Industries have been jointly recognized by the Brandon Hall Group –
the human capital management research firm – for the development
and execution of bp’s employee learning certification program. The
award honors certification programs designed to support competency
and/or skill development within an organization, and improve
employee retention and promotion rates.
“We are delighted to be able to celebrate this award alongside
bp and our technology partner, Thought Industries,” said Ben
Hartfield, senior director at The Hackett Institute®. “The
award-winning learning program was launched after bp’s global
business services (GBS) strategy announcement to develop the skills
required to achieve its ambitious goals. We are proud to be a key
learning partner of bp and look forward to continuing to support it
with its GBS learning journey.”
The energy giant’s GBS division introduced the learning program
in 2022. Executives envisioned the certification program –
developed by The Hackett Group® and delivered via the Thought
Industries’ learning platform – would help bp’s GBS unit retain
critical employees, provide a career path for the team, and
differentiate its GBS employer offer in a competitive and shifting
market due to a generative artificial intelligence (Gen AI) global
market.
The winning program combines bp’s “Learn, Do, Connect and
Reflect” methodology with The Hackett Institute® Certified GBS
Professionals® (CGBSP) programs. Over 5,000 employees work in bp’s
GBS organization based in hubs across Hungary, India, and Malaysia
and multiple other connected cities across the globe. Their GBS
organization handles a variety of critical business processes
across the entire company.
The program is designed to equip employees across the
organization with the knowledge, skills and competencies needed to
excel in various aspects of bp’s global business operations. The
team used The Hackett Group’s CGBSP certification curriculum to fit
seamlessly into bp’s learning methodology.
The bp GBS certification program includes:
- Modular chapters that give participants control in scheduling
and organizing their learning.
- An online learning platform and live training sessions
accessible to employees worldwide.
- Virtual instructors prepared to facilitate discussions and
provide advice in real time.
- Live calls and interactive sessions that enable engagement and
collaboration among participants.
The Net Promoter Score® (NPS) for this learning program is 62%
compared to 47% – already a high benchmark for other programs used
across bp’s GBS organization. Enthusiasm is stronger than most
certification programs: most attendees (93%) complete the course
within four months compared to an industry average of six to nine
months, according to The Hackett Group®.
Graduates of the program are 30% more likely to be promoted than
co-workers who have not been certified. At bp, those who have
completed the program are also seeing lower attrition rates.
“The experience bp has had with the GBS Certification Program –
working with The Hackett Group as a key partner – has provided the
momentum to drive skills even further across the bp GBS
organization,” said Frances Howat, bp’s senior manager of Future
Skills and Learning. “The company has seen the impact this program
has had on career development and employee engagement, and the
whole team is excited to see it grow throughout the organization to
continue to drive more career growth for bp employees, and
ultimately meet the ambitious strategy of bp.”
Finding talent development to be a good investment is not unique
to bp. Digital World Class® companies invest more in talent
development and see a higher return on investment for their efforts
compared to the peer group, according to The Hackett Group’s
research. Typically, these companies have 49% lower recruitment and
staffing costs, and 29% lower overall general and administrative
costs as a percentage of revenue than peers.
“We are immensely proud to see bp’s GBS certification program –
powered by Thought Industries – honored with the esteemed Brandon
Hall Group HCM Excellence Award,” said Robin Wadsworth, CEO of
Thought Industries. “This accolade is a testament to our
collaborative effort to deliver a learning experience that not only
meets but exceeds the professional development needs of today’s
workforce. We are dedicated to building immersive, easy-to-use
platforms tailored for our customer’s unique needs.” A panel of
independent industry experts, Brandon Hall Group analysts and
senior executives evaluated submissions. Each entry was judged on
its fitness to the organization’s needs, design, delivery,
measurable results and overall impact.
