Bij Coolblue gaan we soms terug de schoolbanken in. Maar niet door stil te zitten en alleen te luisteren. De trainingen die je bij ons volgt zijn niet saai, maar juist actief door zelf te oefenen en met elkaar te overleggen en discussiëren. In de Studiefabriek van Coolblue kiezen we wat we willen leren, zodat we onszelf blijven ontwikkelen en een échte specialist worden. Zo heeft een Bezorger andere trainingen nodig dan een Klantenservice Medewerker, en volgt een starter bij Coolblue andere trainingen dan een leidinggevende. Vragen?
