How do I attain this knowledge?

In supporting your goal, GAC Corporate Academy’s foundation course, Introduction to the GAC World (IGW) will provide a wealth of highly valuable information that will make a difference to your career with GAC.

 

Among other aspects, the course will clarify the group's stance on issues such as health and safety, the environment, ethics, corporate culture and quality control. It will also explain how the GAC World is organised and what systems are used to disseminate information throughout our business.

 

What are the benefits?

Knowing these details will help course participants fit seamlessly into their own company structure, enabling them to perform their duties more efficiently and with a greater degree of self-satisfaction — essential qualities for any successful and highly valued member of the GAC Group.

 

Furthermore, learning about the group’s products, services and business philosophy creates well-rounded and knowledgeable colleagues who are more aware of the group-wide picture, not simply the narrower perspective provided by their own roles and responsibilities.

 

What’s involved?

The course has been structured to provide minimal interruption to the work environment. It runs for eight weeks and is delivered via a state-of-the-art, Learning Management System in a virtual classroom. Also, it’s good to know that throughout this course, you will develop the necessary skills to begin your journey through one of GCAs highly innovative programmes.

 

Leading edge work-based learning processes are used that are based on real GAC scenarios. The case studies and highly interactive assessment tasks are of practical use and interest to participants. You will interact with other course members from all over the GAC World, presenting you with a great networking opportunity.

 

IGW has provided me a wonderful opportunity to get an insight into GAC, services being provided, locations, organization, culture and much more which otherwise would have taken years to understand. Also, making new friends in overseas GAC locations is definitely a superb idea and has helped us all to obtain a good view into how these offices work to help improve our own offices. We should maintain these contacts forever.

My experience with IGW has been very positive, it has given me a broader view of the extent of the GAC world and family, I have connected with many different people around the world and shared views and philosophies with them. IGW has given me an excellent insight into GAC, the history, the make up of the company, the expectations and standards expected and also the methods put in place to guarantee a successful future.
I see GCA as an invaluable part of GAC and their role in promoting a learning culture is very important in contributing to a successful GAC going forward.

Through the IGW course I really enjoyed making friends around the world who shared the same experiences at work. It even led me to colleagues in my very own office to whom I have never got the chance to talk to, building connections with them and gaining knowledge and sharing experiences with them.

The course gave me a wonderful Introduction to the GAC World. I truly appreciate the work and effort that our past and present top management has put in to making GAC a HSSE friendly company. The course has ignited me to keep the flame burning, preserving and maintaining the ethics of the GAC.
Doing this course has not only polished my communication skills but also taught me to work on schedule achieving targets as an individual while been a part of a team encouraging each other.
