Partnerships With Other Universities
Partnerships with other
universities in the United States and in other countries enable us to
secure the expertise and services needed by our clients and partners.
We are networked with many other U.S. universities through
membership in the Association of Continuing Higher Education and
internationally through membership in the University Continuing Education
Association.
These professional
affiliations keep us in regular contact with experienced trainers,
consultants, content experts, researchers, and other experts in workforce
development, sustainable development, and other numerous technical,
industry-specific, academic, applied, and business-related fields of
expertise.
Commitment to Utilizing Host Country Expertise
It is often said that an
expert is anyone fifty miles away from home.
In truth, nothing is quite so arrogant as excluding expertise from
the host country when we assemble a project team.
At The Global Workplace, we are committed to integrating local and
regional experts into our team because we know that they will bring a
valuable perspective to team decision-making and problem solving.
Furthermore, we recognize
that including individuals who already have the respect of host country
officials and citizens adds credibility to the mission of the entire
project. Moreover, such partnership efforts strengthen the bonds of
trust among team members, local project liaisons, and citizens.
Local and regional involvement at several levels is crucial to the
success of efforts to create a sense of commitment to the project among
all its stakeholders. |
