Learning & Development

Ownerversity is the Company’s trusted source of learning for all employees, whether they are attending a live/virtual learning experience or accessing digital resources.

Through Ownerversity, employees have access to custom Kraft Heinz training, learning and development materials, as well as external content libraries and articles, such as LinkedIn Learning and Harvard Business Review. Our learning and development offerings enable employees to live our Value, We dare to do better every day, and own their personal learning and development. This empowers employees to execute with excellence in their current role, accelerate their learning curve, and grow a great career. Ownerversity has learning opportunities for everyone, as represented by our ten academies, which inspire and grow talent within Kraft Heinz while developing employees’ capabilities to help them navigate their career journey.

The Leadership and Culture Academy is for all Kraft Heinz employees and focuses on leadership development, manager excellence, and provides opportunities for employees to learn how to live our Purpose and Values every day.

The nine Functional Academies target employees within a specific function, providing a learning home for everyone at Kraft Heinz. Each Functional Academy helps facilitate the development of functional capabilities for employees and their teams to thrive in their roles, which delivers value to Kraft Heinz. The Functional Academies focus on Finance, IT, Legal, Marketing, Operations, People, Procurement, R&D, and Sales.

Learning programs from the Global Functional Academies include learning experiences for audiences across all zones and levels, including partnerships with universities, functional and capability focused learning, custom eLearning development, and Ownerversity Academy home curation.

Since Ownerversity’s inception in 2016, the global and zone learning teams have expanded the Kraft Heinz library to include custom Kraft Heinz learning experiences and curated playlists to help employees find training more easily. In 2022, Ownerversity usage was 14 average learning hours per employee (both office professionals and production workers). The most attended programs across all Kraft Heinz were our #LearnLikeAnOwner Speaker Series followed by Ownerversity Day, our 24-hour event designed to bring the entire Kraft Heinz family together around learning.
