Deloitte's approximately 182,000 professionals are committed to becoming the standard of excellence. As the Deloitte network pursues its plan to increase its total combined workforce to 250,000 professionals by FY2015, it must continue providing fair, inclusive working environments in which people have the opportunity to reach their goals.
Deloitte is working to encourage innovation, diversity, global awareness, and principled conduct among its people. These attributes strengthen the Deloitte organization and help member firms provide services that are critical to clients and markets. They also prepare our alumni to serve as effective financial leaders at other businesses.
As an organization that is built on its people, Deloitte is acutely aware of how important education is to society. Education has the power to unlock potential, deliver economic and social transformation, and change individual lives. Despite great improvements in access, quality, and delivery of education, more must be done.
Deloitte is committed to helping address this challenge. Deloitte21 is our global initiative to drive innovations in education and skills for underserved young people that will help them succeed in the 21st-century economy.
