“The GCAA® is comprehensive, and its structured reports are immediate, clearly laid out, and helpful with supportive suggestions to improve personal capabilities.”

“The Global Competence Model™ takes a holistic approach to global readiness. The GCAA® gives a clear picture of how people think and work across cultures. It’s practical and easy to understand, and the scores help you see areas for growth, not just where you are doing well.”

“With the researched Global Competence Model™ at its foundation, the GCAA® is a great vehicle to evaluate the capabilities that are needed for global effectiveness across knowledge, interpersonal skills, and attitudes. Global competence development is a life-long journey that requires continuous learning, and the GCAA® prioritizes where to focus your efforts.”

“I use the GCAA® to assess the global competence of our students before and after participating in our short-term summer study abroad program. I cannot recommend this tool enough for other researchers or educators who want to analyze their students’ level of global competence aptitude. Based on the results of my research using the GCAA®, we are able to adjust our study abroad program to better fit the needs of our students and prepare them to become global citizens.”

“The Spanish version of the Global Competence Aptitude Assessment® is a valuable resource and provides a strong foundation for UPAEP’s faculty and student internationalization efforts and for the development of our global strategic plan.“

“You cannot “game” this assessment by rating yourself high on a Likert scale to elevate your scores. The GCAA® delivers accurate results because of its objective design, which is important to share when presenting results.”

“We use the GCAA® to directly assess student learning outcomes for our regional accreditation process. The GCAA® has assisted us identify where our students need to improve, and it has highlighted strategic opportunities that the university can undertake for continuous improvement. In addition, students are empowered by the assessment experience and reflect upon their own prioritized development feedback so they can plan their next steps toward global competence development.”

“I know of no better tool to assess one’s ability to work effectively in international settings as well as one’s awareness of and adaptability to diverse cultures, perceptions and approaches than the GCAA®. I highly recommend the GCAA®!“

“We must not only provide experiences and education designed to develop global competence, we must demonstrate that our efforts are actually effective. The GCAA® is an excellent instrument for providing information about a person’s level of global competence because it generates a comprehensive and detailed report on global interpersonal skills, attitudes and knowledge.”

“Thorough. This assessment has a good variety of real-life situations for cross-cultural problem solving.”
