SUPERVALU AND CENTRA Musgrave Learning - Musgrave Learning Academy
FOREWORD

We are delighted to introduce our 2019/2020 Careers in SuperValu & Centra Brochure which
details our Accredited Learning Pathway. Our offering of accredited programmes has grown
even bigger this year. These programmes are bespoke and only available to the employees of
SuperValu & Centra. We have formed strong partnerships with TU Dublin (formerly DIT), CIT,
IINH, ILM, etb, The Wine Academy of Ireland & BIM. We are delighted to be able to offer the
majority of these programmes nationwide.

September 2019 will see the exciting launch of our new 4 Year Bsc (Hons) Strategic Retail
Management Degree through TU Dublin which is available exclusively to our stores.
Flexibility is built into this 4-year degree programme, whereby participants can choose to
graduate after two years with a Higher Certificate in Retail Practice (equivalent to the current
diploma); three years with an Ordinary Degree or four years with an Honours Degree.
Note: This replaces our current diploma & degree programme.

New also are the IILM accredited INSPIRE Programmes which include a Level 4 Team Leader
Award, Level 4 Manager Award & Level 6 HR Award. These short programmes are ideal for
junior managers & HR people commencing their career or learning journey.

We are also launching a new ACBI Butchery Apprenticeship for Junior Butchers in Dublin
this Summer and we will follow this up with launches in Cork & Galway in the coming months.
This new apprenticeship enables us to develop new butchers for our stores. We will continue
to offer the Diploma in Butchery through TU Dublin which is suitable for more experienced
butchers. The Diploma will enhance the operational expertise of your Butcher, but it will
also equip them with expertise in areas such as product display, cookery and customer
engagement.

There are also our bespoke programmes in Bakery & Deli in conjunction with CIT. The
Professional Bakery Module is 12 days in length and offers learners the opportunity to
develop skills and knowledge required to work in a professional retail bakery environment.
The Delicatessen Food Service module is also 12 days and introduces the learners to a wide
range of commodities. If you complete both the Bakery & Deli Programmes learners will
qualify for a Certificate in Retail Food Operations.

We will be partnering with the Wine Academy of Ireland to bring you both WSET Wine
Appreciation Level 4 and WSET Wine Appreciation Level 5. We also offer an IINH Certificate
in the Provision of In-Store Health & Nutrition Advice / ITEC Level 5 – Health & Wellbeing.

If you would like to nominate a member of your team for any of these programmes, please
follow the booking instructions on the last page.

We would like to thank you for your continued support of these programmes and we look
forward to continuing the journey together towards developing our people to be the very best
there are in grocery retailing. We encourage you to make the most of these programmes as a
means of ‘growing our own talent’ in retail and retaining quality ‘foodies’ and managers in our
stores.

Kind Regards,

WHAT OUR GRADUATES SAY!
                                          The Musgrave/DIT degree
                  whilst challenging has been extremely rewarding in both my professional
           and personal development. The structure of the degree is specifically designed for busy
        retail managers and the demanding retail environment they serve the modules helped me to
       shape and develop my leadership style and assisted my journey greatly from manager to leader.
        The greatest benefit of the course for me was the development of my ability to think critically
                and strategically about the market I operate in today and will do in the future
                                 and how best to maximise the opportunities.

                                                                                      Robert Ward
                                         I completed the
                        DIT Butchery Course in 2018. Since then I feel so
                     confident in dealing with customers, ordering stock and
                    coming up with new ideas to drive sales and margin in our
                 Butchery Department. I found my tutors very helpful and would
                       recommend this course if you would like to further
                                            your career.

    Ann Marie Maguire

                                              I recently completed the
                       Professional Bakery courses in CIT in 2018. As manager of a centra store
           I felt I needed to be more informed and educated about the fresh food side of the business.
         As much as I need to delegate and empower charge hands I also needed to empower myself as
         a manager to challenge and improve the departments to drive the business forward. There was
       much more content covered in the courses than I anticipated. The ideas and knowledge shared and
      discussed by course colleagues and course instructors was invaluable. One of the reasons I enrolled in
             the courses was to have the knowledge and know how to challenge my team to improve
                  the business. After completion of the courses I achieved this, but I also was much
                        more appreciative and understanding of the work load & time frames
                                           involved in those departments.

                                                                                        Eoin O’Donoghue

                                                    Before commencing
                                 the programme I held a trainee manager position in store.
                          As a trainee manager I knew that to develop myself further, to become
                   a store manager I needed to understand the theoretical aspects that comes with
                  the responsibilities of being a manager and I felt this was the right programme for
                  me. This programme helped me understand my role and equipped me with tools to
               become a better manager. It developed my personal leadership skills which gave me the
                 ability to influence my team in a positive and effective way to the store. I would highly
                  recommend the DIT Diploma in Retail Management programme to any upcoming
                            trainee managers in my opinion it felt like the missing link between
                                       my role as a trainee manager and becoming a
                                                       store manager.
          Fiona O’Keeffe

                                                 From completing the
                           Bakery course in CIT in 2018, I can only say good things about it.
                 This course offered a depth of learning to the processes involved in scratch baking.
            As I work in a bakery, I had knowledge of production and ingredients but having this course
        provided me with the knowledge as to why we do certain things. This in turn provided me with the
        skills and knowledge to bring back to my bakery and work with a greater sense of confidence. CIT
             provided all the resources and equipment that we would need in order to aid our learning,
            from practical implementation as far as written notes. In reflection I feel very privileged to
                      have been able to complete this course and I would be very interested in
                                            completing more in the future.

                                                                                           Gemma Linehan

QUESTIONS….QUESTIONS!
    QUESTION: I have an employee who works on the shop floor and has shown interest in working in
    the Bakery, would she be suitable for the CIT Bakery Programme?

    ANSWER: The CIT Bakery Programme is for employees who are new to the Bakery so it would be
    a great Programme for this employee. It would give her the skills and confidence to work in the
    Bakery and she would be ready as a replacement if a role were to come up. In the meantime, while
    doing this programme she could get good experience in the Bakery covering holidays.

    QUESTION: I have an employee who has been working in the Deli for just under two years and he
    is very good and I want to see him progress within this department. Is there any suitable 3rd Level
    programmes for him?

    ANSWER: We would recommend the CIT Special Purpose Award in Delicatessen Food Service. It
    is aimed at anyone working in or intending to work in the Deli. It will help your more experienced
    employee to further improve their Skills, knowledge & creativity. On completion of this programme,
    he will have gained a Level 6 Special Purpose Award in Delicatessen Food Services.

    QUESTION: As an employer, what responsibilities do I have regarding fees?

    ANSWER: It is important to be up front about the costs involved with the employee who is about
    to embark on the programme. Employers generally pay the course fees, but this is down to the
    employer’s personal choice. Please refer to the Educational Assistance Policy which is in the HR
    section of the Retailer Toolkit.
    It is the responsibility of the learner to attend all modules and keep up to date with assignments &
    exams.

    QUESTION: I can’t see the 2 Year Diploma Programme on the schedule and I want to send two
    employees to the programme in September?

    ANSWER: The Diploma Programme is now called the ‘Higher Cert in Retail Practice’ under the
    framework of our new Honours Degree Programme (page18). The Higher Certificate in Retail
    Practice is the same programme and is the equivalent to the Diploma, it takes 2 years and is covering
    the same material with the same number of days out of store.

    QUESTION: My Trainee Manager completed the Diploma in Retail Management back in 2011 and
    wants to progress to a Store Manager position in time. He is now ready to continue with his studies,
    what would be a good next step for him?

    ANSWER: Good timing! We are delighted to have launched our new TU Dublin Honours Degree
    in Strategic Retail Management. This trainee manager can now attend Year 3 of the Degree and
    graduate after 1 year with an Ordinary degree or 2 years with an Honours degree.

    * Year 3 of this TU Dublin Degree programme is now available to book on the Musgrave Learning
    Academy.

    QUESTION: Are the CIT Programmes only available in Cork?

    ANSWER: The CIT programmes have so far ran in Cork, Dublin & Athlone and we will run them in
    different locations if there is interest.

 (ACBI) we are launching a National Craft Butchery Apprenticeship. This is a free programme

 Major Award.

 80% of the programme is on the job learning, so stores must have a suitable Mentor (Trainer)
 in place. The Mentor must have a minimum of 3 years relevant experience as a Butcher and/
 or a Level 5 Qualification as Butcher. The Mentor must complete a 1-day Workplace Mentoring
 Programme and the store must be approved as suitable by the ETB (primary focus is on Health

 Stores must pay the Apprentice Butcher whilst on the programme and release them to attend
 training. 80% of the programme is on-job training and the Apprentice Butcher must attend
 approximately 20% off-job training. Please note there is an initial large block of off-Job training.
 Thereafter, training typically is run in blocks of 2 days. For programmes outside Dublin, most
 off-job training will run in either Cork or Galway, with a small number of days in the Teagasc
 facilities in Dublin.

 Apprentices will be trained to cut, prepare, package and present meat products; and ultimately
 will gain the range of skills, knowledge and competencies required by a Craft Butcher. Subjects
