Participants will also lead a local education project through an existing nonprofit in their area, in addition to taking a monthly online course and a three-day executive education program. &lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;On top of doing good, Deloitte is hoping that the program, and others like it, will help recruit top candidates and boost retention rates. Aijala also explains that the project increases the firm&#39;s brand awareness around the world and builds a strong network of future hires.
