Cultural Adjustment & Cross Cultural Adaptability Inventory (CCAI) Training

The CCAI is a training tool which assists companies in choosing the right personnel for international assignments. The training helps determine an individual’s potential for adjustment to a new environment and helps clarify if the employee and the family are a good fit for a foreign assignment. The training duration is 4 hours.

Expatriate Training

Expatriate Training is designed for the relocating assignee and family. The training helps individuals and their families adjust to the new environment and prepare for successful interaction both in daily life and business situations in the destination country. The training consists of the following parts: cultural differences/culture shock, business life, daily life/city specifics. The training occurs over 8-12 hours. A separate, customized children’s and young adult program (4 hours) is also available.

Intercultural / Diversity Training

These "softskill" trainings increase intercultural skills and improve management performance in a global environment. The training encourages participants to identify the tools and skills needed for effectively addressing social and professional differences in a multinational company. Training length: 4-8 hours; for groups of up to 25 participants.

Repatriation Training

No matter why the foreign assignment ends, each returning expat experiences challenges upon reentry into the culture he/she once called home. Global LT's training is customized to address the needs of each member of the repatriating family. Acknowledging the many transitions experienced during the expat assignment, we consider the importance of goal setting, the adjustment to a once familiar community, management of both employee and spouse's careers and the importance of maintaining realistic expectations. Global LT offers follow up sessions after program completion to further support the returning expats. Training length: 2 days (+ongoing process of preparation and follow up).
