Sample Courses
Global Understanding –
Global Knowledge
The Global Understanding course supports the Global Awareness and Historical Perspective dimensions of the Global Competence Model™. Knowledge about religion, geography, current events, and history form the basis of culture. The course covers a general framework of major societal shifts that have taken place over time and across the world’s regions, which are embedded in the culture and values that still impact people today. It highlights nations of prominence based on global rankings, as well as those of client interest. To be successful when interacting with individuals of varying backgrounds, it is essential to have a strong generalized foundation of global knowledge so that cultural differences make sense and can be acted upon appropriately.

Successful Global Attitudes
The Global Outlook course supports the Open-Minded, Risk Taking, and Attentiveness to Diversity dimensions of the Global Competence Model™. The course helps participants recognize different perspectives and ways of life so that they are more inclined to receive information without judgment. It encourages individuals to step outside their cultural boxes to catalyze their journey toward successful attitudes in a global context.
Global Teams and Communication –
Cultural Sensitivity and Interpersonal Skills
The Global Teams and Communication Course fosters the Collaboration Across Cultures and the Intercultural Capability dimensions of the Global Competence Model™. This course provides participants skills to bridge cultural differences in order to communicate and work collaboratively in today’s varied team settings.
