To assess company reputation among its most powerful stakeholders, namely clients and employees, IBA Group undertook a reputation audit in late 2007. The audit showed that both employees and clients rate IBA higher than its competitors.

Professional Training

IBA employees receive training at the IBA Training Center and training centers of world IT leaders, including IBM (US, Germany, Great Britain, Slovenia, and Russia), HP, SAP, SAS, Microsoft, Novell, Check Point, PTC, and 1C.

The IBA Training Center offers classes in IT, business, and foreign (English, German, French, and Chinese) languages. As the IBA Training Center has a Thompson Prometric–authorized testing center, our employees are able to take certification tests in different programs, including about 70 in the IT area (Microsoft, Novell, Cisco, Oracle, SAP, Symantec, and IBM). Roughly, 25% of IBA employees have received training at the educational centers of global IT providers.

Promoting Talent

IBA Group is dedicated to developing, rewarding, and promoting top talent. In addition to salaries, bonuses, and trainings at leading IT companies, IBA has an electronic Honor Board and publicizes clients’ letters of thanks to individual employees in its intranet. Being a company of varying age groups, IBA has recently conducted a restructuring that resulted in the appointment of more young talented people to leading positions.

IBA fosters an atmosphere of mutual assistance and encourages active community involvement among its employees. The IBA intranet has a bulletin board that the employees use to organize various public events. After a discussion at the bulletin board, a choir was formed at IBA Minsk. The company provided the choir with free premises, hired a conductor, and bought an electronic piano. In December 2007, the choir performed for the first time at the Minsk Red Cathedral. The first public appearance was followed by performance at the St. Roch Church and participation in concerts at the Minsk Philharmonic Society and Minsk Concert Hall.

Encouraging Compassion

Through the bulletin board, IBA employees raised money for children who needed to go abroad for operations, collected signatures to protest against the killing of homeless dogs and cats by local authorities, and found families for abandoned puppies and kittens.
