💡 Spending Framework: You may use your budget for any training that can help improve your professional performance and is aligned with Strapi Values
Strapi fully encourages all formats of training and learning as long as it fits within the framework. In addition to technical, field-related training, you can also explore diversity, language, emotional intelligence, and personal development courses. Please consider what learning would be the most helpful in your role. E.g. courses for languages that are not used in your work are great developmental activities; however, there is probably training that would have a better direct impact on your success at Strapi. Any books purchased with your training budget will belong to you. You can use the budget also for subscriptions for learning or publishing platforms/apps.
🔎 You can verify your remaining budget in the Individual Learning dashboard anytime.
The learning budget is allocated for the calendar year. Any unused budget cannot be transferred to the following year.
Strapiers who joined during the year, receive an individual learning budget proportional to the number of calendar days between their start date and the end of the year.
