ACA Group proudly announces its recognition as one of Belgium's top 10 Best Workplaces by the prestigious Great Place to Work Institute ® ! What is a Best Workplace? "Best Workplaces," as outlined by Vlerick Business School, are marked by deep trust, strong values, and effective leadership, fostering innovation and growth.

It validates our efforts to ensure that our workplace is not just a place to work, but a space where growth, well-being, and success come together," affirms Ronny Ruyters , CEO of ACA Group. 🎥 Embracing diversity: The ACA Jungle movie In celebration of our recognition as one of Belgium's Best Workplaces, ACA Group took on a unique jungle movie challenge for the Best Workplace event - to create a movie that captures the essence of our team's spirit . Rather than selecting just one jungle totem, we chose to highlight the rich diversity of our 🌴 ACA jungle 🌴 , where a variety of animals coexist, symbolizing the strength and unity found in our diverse team. Proud of our awesome team 👏 This recognition means a lot as it follows our previous acknowledgment in November, where we were already honored with the "Great Place to Work"® label . Now, we are proud to officially rank among the top 10 Best Workplaces in Belgium, which further strengthens our position as an employer of choice. As we celebrate this milestone, we remain focused on enhancing our workplace culture, driven by our dedication to the well-being and development of our people. We understand that our success is a direct result of our team's hard work, talent, and shared values.

Once again, we can officially call ourselves a Great Place to Work by achieving the label! This certificate is only awarded to companies in which team members indicate in an official survey that they love working for their company, trust each other and take pride in their job. ACA Group: awarded again as a Great Place To Work! We are proud to announce that ACA Group has earned the coveted "Great Place to Work" label for the 2nd time in a row. This prestigious recognition is a testament to our exceptional work culture and the dedication of every team member. This certificate is awarded on the basis of an internal survey and audit by the Great Place to Work Institute Belgium (an authority in the field of trusted and high-performing work cultures), together with Vlerick Business School . Unique to this research is that the evaluation by employees takes precedence. The final score is determined by the survey results of the company's own employees. The next step is to find out whether the ACA Group has also been nominated as a “ Best Workplace ”, the next phase in the certification process. Thank you to all of our team members for trusting our organization and for giving your best every day and for each other. We are immensely proud of where we are today as a team! What is the Great Place to Work® Belgium label? Great workplaces are about more than benefits or facilities. In Great Place to Work's vision, great employment is about three interrelationships based on trust, pride and pleasure. Recognition is based on both the perspective of employees and how great workplaces are used within the organization. This unique combination and the strict criteria mean that not every organization achieves the certificate and it is an achievement to be proud of. Label attainment is calculated using The Trust Index© of Vlerick Business School .

This week, we organized our first internal meeting of 2023 in our Hasselt office. Every quarter we organise an internal meeting in one of our ACA offices and digitally. The agenda consists of internal company updates and topics, internal or external speakers or inspiration sessions. And of course lots of food and drinks will be provided! The internal meeting traditionally follows an event format and discusses projects, bigger / longer topics. It is the perfect opportunity to come together and talk to colleagues from the other offices or who mostly work at the client’s office. We started off the internal meeting with a kick off 2023 from our CEO Ronny Ruyters and CTO Stijn Van den Enden. During their kick off, Ronny and Stijn announced important company updates and our goals for 2023. Other company updates were also shared by some team members. After, it was time for knowledge sharing - in the form of break-out sessions - by some of our own employees. During these break-out sessions, our team members shared their knowledge about a specific topic, tool, expertise domain, … by giving a presentation and Q A session. Knowledge sharing = caring. ;-) Tom De Wolf gave a brief introduction to Data Mesh and which solutions it can offer. Stijn Vandereyken gave us more insights into a modern data platform. Jelle Cayman told us how his team transformed the traditional red alert button in hospital rooms to meet the modern needs of both patients and healthcare staff. And last but not least, Peter Jans shared his knowledge about building and running high availability apps in the cloud. After the interesting break-out sessions, there was lots of food and plenty of time to talk with the team members! It was a great evening and we’re looking forward to an awesome 2023 together!
