R/GA University Curriculum

Professional Development
Here, we place great emphasis on craft—from creative concepting, to the finer details of systematic design, to the correct way to write a statement of work, to the evolving art of digital signage. We work on presentation skills, time management, and many more in dozens of skills-building courses. And the new R/GA Resource and Creativity Center offers resource materials, archives of past client work, room for training and brainstorming, and a Wii! If it concerns your work at R/GA, the industry at large, or your broader professional interests, it’s here.

Industry Trends
At R/GA, we have some of the best talent in the industry. But we also have a healthy respect for talent in the wider agency world and beyond. Industry Trends tracks the latest developments and best practices in the creative, tech, and media communities. By sharing thought leadership with everyone in the agency, Industry Trends helps us constantly push our work further.

Leadership Development
As a leader in the industry, we think it’s only natural to want to foster the next generation of leadership. We offer classes ranging from basic management to negotiations and strategic planning. Our department heads and team leaders regularly provide mentorship and direction to both individuals and teams to help our people grow their careers.

Inside R/GA
The digital world moves at a blinding pace—and we want everyone at R/GA to move forward with it. Inside R/GA serves as an open communication platform for the agency. It’s where individual employees share their expertise, turning it into collective knowledge so everyone can be in the know. We share through webinars, brown-bag lunches, town-hall-style meetings, and formal off-sites.

Work/Life Balance
Our people work hard, but life is about more than hard work. It’s important to have balance. Work/Life Balance encourages us all to breathe, chill out, and come back to work energized and happy. Tuesday night yoga classes, Thursday night basketball runs, and a film series are just some of our offerings to help people decompress.
