Park, KS – June 2019 / Newsmaker Alert /
Global
Connections, Inc. (GCI), the well-known travel club fulfillment and
service provider of Global
Discovery Vacations (GDV), is committed to providing ongoing education
and training to all of its employees.
GCI’s
proprietary Global Training Certification program is dedicated to help
its team be the best version of themselves. It is guided by two primary
goals:
-
BE
SMART by continually learning about GCI and GDV
-
FEEL
GOOD by learning how to improve personal health and wellness
The
Human Resources department, headed by Michelle Zimmerman, Vice President
of HR, offers various training events throughout the year and recognizes
milestones with points and rewards along the way.
After
attending in-house and other approved webinars and classes, GCI team members
are rewarded with a plaque commemorating their achievements, a special
name plate for their desk and a gift card. Ongoing certification points
must be accumulated by October 31 of each year. Employees can check their
progress on the personalized Point Tracker on the GCI Employee Intranet.
A wide
range of classes on various subjects are offered each year, ranging from
“Financial Wellbeing” to “Employee Handbook Training.” Two of the most
favorite courses are “Career Growth at Global Connections “ and “Essential
Oils/Wellness.”
“We
find that many of our most successful classes have been suggested by employees
themselves. They know what information will help them achieve success on
the job,” said Michelle
Zimmerman. “Of course, the awards and recognition are an important
part of the program, but we find that most of our employees are equally
motivated by achieving professional and personal goals.”
