The MTR Corp's commitment to staff development has long been recognised in Hong Kong. The company believes that people are its most valuable assets.

Over the years, the corporation has dedicated significant resources to staff development, and its accelerated development programme is further evidence of the firm's commitment to investing in people.

The programme, which was appraised by the American Society for Training and Development and recognised with an Excellence in Practice Award in 2001, was launched in 1997 when the MTRC saw the need to speed up the development of senior managers in order to maintain a standard of excellence and deal with keen market competition and challenges.

The company has since implemented four such programmes for its middle and senior managers.

'We need to be assured we have the right availability of human resources to achieve our business objectives,' said management training and development manager Francis Mok.

The development programme begins with a selection process.
