Morrisons’ interim results: past year’s challenges
Staff complete leadership course
A Morrisons-sponsored degree course in leadership and logistics yielded its first graduates at the University of Hull.
The 21 graduates are the first successful students of a foundation degree in leadership and logistics at the Logistics Institute at Hull University Business School, designed for the retailer’s staff.
About 100 Morrisons staff are expected to complete the course, which will run for another two years.
David Grant, professor of logistics and associate dean (business engagement), congratulated the Morrisons graduates. “They have achieved very good marks and I am confident that these graduates will progress rapidly and become a real asset to the Morrisons brand in the future,” he said.
The students were recruited internally by Morrisons and then vetted for appropriate entry qualifications by the university.
