⚡ Key Points
The program combines learning communities with AI-driven reflection analysis to support autonomous employee growth.
Shake and Codetakt have launched 'CYCLE,' a new training program for 2026 graduates. The program combines learning communities with AI-driven reflection analysis to support autonomous employee growth.
Overview
Shake Inc. and Codetakt Inc. have launched a new employee training program, 'CYCLE' (New Employee Program for Turning Experience into Personal Theory through Peer Learning).
Development Background
While recent new employees prioritize personal growth as their primary motivation, OJT trainers often struggle to provide rigorous feedback due to concerns over harassment. This reliance on field-based OJT has hit a ceiling, creating a need for systems that encourage new employees to learn autonomously.
Three Key Features
1. Cultivating 'Self-Produce' Skills: Beyond technical skills, the program builds 'coachability'—the ability to establish relationships, earn trust, and seek feedback.
2. Peer Learning Communities: By sharing experiences, employees turn their personal lessons into a 'personal theory' and accelerate autonomous growth.
3. Utilization of TeamTakt and AI: The program employs the 'G-POP' reflection model and 'Gururi' (group reflection). AI analyzes the experiential learning cycle to provide feedback on reproducibility and error prevention.
Program Structure
- Introductory and Pre-assignment Training: Cultivating a growth mindset.
- After Assignment (3–6 months): Bi-weekly reflection and peer learning sessions. Monthly themes include relationship building, work management, and job crafting.
