The program features

Specialised Pathways
Graduates apply and are selected for a specific pathway focused on an in-demand field like software engineering, data engineering, cybersecurity, or platform (cloud) engineering. Each pathway provides deep technical expertise tailored to that specialty area.

Flexible, Capability-Driven Rotations
Instead of fixed rotation timeframes, the program utilises a capability-driven model. Within their chosen pathway, graduates complete 2-3 rotations of variable duration, moving through each rotation once they demonstrate mastery of the required skills for that rotation. This self-paced approach enables high performers to accelerate their development.

Strategic Alignment
The program has a dedicated Technology Leadership Team sponsor who ensures tight integration with the company's workforce planning and business priorities. This strategic alignment focuses the curriculum on developing the most relevant capabilities to drive impact.

Permanent Roles
The Technology Graduate roles are hired as permanent positions from the start. As graduates progress through their chosen pathway and rotations, they are developing for long-term technology careers.
The Technology Graduate program equips participants with specialised expertise through tailored pathways, self-paced capability development within that pathway, strategic business alignment, and permanent technology roles. Graduates emerge with well-rounded skills and foundations  for long-lasting impact.
