INretail launches INretail Academy

INretail has launched the INretail Academy platform. The website offers a range of education and training courses for employers and their employees in the retail sector. It should serve as a repository for "learning opportunities that can often be free or at a discount," according to the trade association's press release.

The range of education and training courses is divided over thirteen theme areas. Inretail works together with Detex Opleidingen, OVD Opleidingen, Skills Town, Van Kraay Education and E-academy.org, according to the press release. The parties want to actively encourage further learning and working on skills.

“The changes in retail, customer behaviour and digitization are always ongoing. That is why employees and employers must continue to develop and keep in touch with the knowledge and skills that are necessary to continue to enjoy working in the future," according to the press release.
