“Learning is an experience. Everything else is just information”
Albert Einstein
The process of onboarding and training new hires is a crucial step in ensuring that young talent is well-prepared to become a valuable investment and an asset to the firm.
Retaining the best talent is also crucial to the success of any business.
New-talent training programs must provide the foundation of knowledge and skills on which future success is built.


The ability to give today’s young talent real, usable, skills quickly is a huge bonus for any firm, and far better than new hires passively struggling to absorb a mountain of knowledge. Experiential learning makes the onboarding process a great experience.
New-talent training is a process which many firms repeat every year with little change in approach or delivery.
Why not consider a fresh approach?
How practical, engaging, and memorable is your new-talent program for business and finance?
To be really effective, learning must be applied experientially.
The most effective and compelling means of achieving this is by integrating challenging and totally realistic simulation into new-talent programs at every stage.
People immediately practice what they learn – and remember.


Ventum is the perfect tool for teaching accounting principles and key business metrics. Participants learn to read, interpret, and apply data from financial statements and KPIs – not in theory, but through the lived experience of running a company
Rather than passively learning about income statements, balance sheets, and cash flow reports, participants interact with them directly – seeing how strategic choices ripple through financial performance.
From managing working capital to interpreting profitability and return metrics, Ventum brings finance to life by embedding the numbers into every decision.
Ventum is highly effective in cultivating new-talent in business, finance, and accounting. It fast-tracks commercial awareness, sharpens decision-making, and gets participants thinking like business leaders from day one.
By simulating real-world pressures and cross-functional trade-offs, it builds confidence, teamwork, and strategic mindset faster than traditional training ever could.
