Our
Academies

Our academies are built within the LEAP Program to provide more specialized training in key job areas.

Product Manager Academy

Pushing innovative ideas and products through development sounds rewarding, right? Product managers at Palo Alto Networks protect some of the world’s most sensitive data from constant threats by bringing together the needs of our clients with our engineer’s solutions.

As part of our Product Manager Academy, you’ll learn how to brainstorm, innovate, and disrupt the industry by creating roadmaps and product ideas that defend the world from digital dangers.

Sales Academy

Sales is a challenging career path. It’s all about building relationships, education, and persevering through rejection. It’s been said that “everyone is in sales,” so being able to stand out is key. How does Palo Alto Networks’ sales staff do that? Empathy. We care about the security of our clients, and how it keeps their business moving forward.

Join our Sales Academy to learn from the best cybersecurity sellers. Through in-depth training, you will learn to sell a portfolio of products, tell an authentic story, and build trusting relationships.

Systems Engineering Academy

As architects of cybersecurity, Palo Alto Network’s systems engineers survey the landscape, identify imminent threats, and collaborate with clients to blend existing products with never-before-used techniques, safeguarding our customers’ most valuable information.

You’ll join an elite cohort of recent technical college graduates for a two-year intense immersion into cybersecurity, Palo Alto Networks technologies, automation, and on-the-job learning.

Where Design Meets Technology

December 19, 2020

As a woman, I can say that Palo Alto Networks has excellent employees of both genders, and I work daily with other great female developers, product managers, and quality engineers. Although I think some women may feel intimidated to work in technology, they shouldn’t. The atmosphere here is very empowering for women, and I’ve never felt like I was a minority. I hope more women join this company because I’d like everyone to be able to experience the same positive environment and perks as I do.

Frog in a Well: Employee Network Groups Expand Your View of the World

December 5, 2020

Since coming to America, I’ve seen that what makes us great is the diversity of thought and ability to surround ourselves with people from all walks of life and learn from each other, regardless of caste, color, or creed. It is only by doing this that we “frogs” can see beyond our wells and truly understand the world. That’s the power of an ENG.

Serving Those Who Served

December 4, 2020

Diversity and inclusion are top priorities at our company, but I also believe that every company can do more to identify prospective employees who are veterans and tap into the talents and experiences they can bring to the job.
