Raiffeisen Campus

What Raiffeisen Campus does

Raiffeisen Campus is the dedicated corporate academy of the Austrian Raiffeisen cooperative banking and warehousing sector, operating as a Teilbetrieb (operational division) of the Österreichischer Raiffeisenverband (ÖRV). Headquartered at Trabrennstraße 2A, 1020 Vienna, it serves employees, executives, and volunteer functionaries (functionaries/supervisory board members) of Raiffeisen banks, Raiffeisen Lagerhaus cooperatives, and Raiffeisen Ware Austria, training more than 5,000 individuals annually and reaching 93% of all Austrian Raiffeisen banks. The organization runs ~40 staff across seven functional teams covering executive management, functionary & executive development, bank training, organization & sales development, seminar organization, assistance/finance, and organization/IT.

Its core technology asset is L@RA (Learning at Raiffeisen anywhere), a unified Learning Management System launched on 16 August 2023 on the IMC Learning Suite platform that consolidated the prior Seminarmanagement (SEM) and learning@Raiffeisen platforms into a single registration, content delivery, and compliance-reporting system. The educational portfolio spans vocational seminars (e.g., Privatkunden-Colleg, Firmenkunden-Colleg, Diplom.Finanzberater), supervisory and executive programs (RBM 1/2, Kompetenz plus, Geno plus, CSE Certified Supervisory Expert), university-accredited academic programs delivered with LIMAK and IMC Krems (Academic Premium Banking at €15,900 / 62 ECTS; Executive Certificate Digitales Management at 18 ECTS), the Jobprofil-Generator sector job-profiling tool, and customized inhouse training. Certifications are aligned to Austrian banking regulation (Fit & Proper, IDD/MiFID) and are recognized sector-wide.

The business model is professional services: participation fees for open-enrollment seminars, multi-year contracts for academic programs, and fees for customized inhouse training, with the entity VAT-exempt as an Austrian educational institution. GTM is anchored in direct engagement with the Raiffeisen organization across all Austrian federal states (coordinating sector education managers), supplemented by academic channel partnerships (LIMAK, IMC Krems, incite GmbH) and a calendar of major conferences (e.g., Bundeskongress Lebens- und Arbeitsfreude, Management-Forum für Geschäftsleiter:innen). Distribution combines the L@RA platform, in-person delivery at the Vienna headquarters and inhouse at client sites, and online/hybrid formats. Marketing is primarily internal — LinkedIn, the L@RA portal, Raiffeisen sector events, and direct email/phone — reflecting the captive intra-association customer base.
