# ICICI Bank

**ICICI Bank** — headquartered in Mumbai with **over 130,000 employees** — uses reskilling to tap broader talent pools. It runs an **academy-like program that reskills 2,500 to 4,000 employees annually** for frontline managerial jobs.

The program is the canonical example of a [[concept-vocational-residency|vocational residency]]: a **four-month vocational residency** (simulation-style training) followed by an **eight-month field deployment** (structured internship and shadowing of a current manager).
