Ifogeco, the Mr.Bricolage group training institute, has issued diplomas to its future store directors. This first set of graduates was baptised the “Bernard Ivernel” class, which is the name of main founder of the grouping of independent stores.
The ceremony was organised in the presence of Jean-François Boucher, Chief Executive Officer of the Mr.Bricolage group, Jean-Mary Marie, Human Resources director, Philippe Colomby, Director of Integrated Stores, Jianny Gigan, Director of Ifogeco, and the team of monitors.
This sandwich course training is organised over one year, with one week per month. Eight new directors were rewarded for their participation and the quality of their final presentation. Next year, the Management school will be completed to train the sons and daughters of current franchise managers, destined to take over the family business one day. This Mr.Bricolage group internal training program is highly successful, with fifteen participants registered for the next course.
Jean-François Boucher reiterated the importance accorded by the Group to the men and women working within the grouping. Every effort is made to ensure personnel progress, and the Group even provides support for personnel wishing to take over or create their own company thanks to the Passport for entrepreneurs. This program was launched in 2008, and two former Group employees received support in 2009.
