What our customers say about Global Knowledge...
"Vodafone Business Services has partnered with Global Knowledge to create a suite of technology e-learning courses to support our sales and services work force as they prepare to sell more complex, converged solutions to our customers. The team at Global Knowledge has made every effort to understand the strategy that underpins our need for this training and we feel that they have worked effectively to ensure all of our requirements have been met. Global Knowledge has a strong project management office and this provides me with a great deal of confidence when it comes to hitting deliverable deadlines and payment milestones. We are looking forward to continuing to work with Global Knowledge over the next few months as we look to deliver their output across Europe."
Emma Rowett – Head of Capability VBS
"As part of Vodafone’s strategy to become a provider of Total Communications, we have a requirement to ensure that all of our customer facing staff are able to build on their awareness of all things mobile and get to grips with the fixed voice and data worlds. With much of the required content not presently available in our in-house online catalogue, I was looking for a reputable provider of technology expertise, and Global Knowledge certainly fit this description. What they were able to do that really added value, however, was to provide the desired content in a way that was engaging and captivating for learners at various levels of the business. They were also able to provide the content in a way that would facilitate use across global operating companies, increasing the value for money exponentially. Overall, I am very glad to have found Global Knowledge as a provider of online solutions, and am looking forward to engaging with them again on future projects."

ON OUR LEARNING DELIVERY METHODS:
“ Managing the learning demands of a technical community constrained at times by our Island location can be challenging when trying to maximize value for time and cost. Travel expenses are a necessary but unwelcome evil. Therefore the opportunity to work with Global Knowledge on their new virtual learning offering was an opportunity that we grabbed. Having now experienced the virtual experience and received very enthusiastic feedback from our staff, we have no hesitation in recommending Global Knowledge.”
Andy Pirie, Corporate Solutions Product Manager, Manx Telecom
ON OUR MANAGED TRAINING SERVICES:
“We needed to change our way of working and establish a level of control. Training had become ad hoc with everyone doing their own thing, and we needed to save on spending. This is where Global Knowledge’s managed services offering came into its own. They always went beyond its remit to source the very best training and services from all over the country. By creating a level of discipline and control, Global Knowledge set up a consistent and high quality learning development programme for all employees. As a leading partner of choice, it also took on the time-consuming activities that come with a multinational enterprise, such as selecting training partners, managing external suppliers and invoicing. The company also provided a variety of courses with the support and guidance that would ensure Kcom benefited even more from a training perspective. It’s very important to Kcom that each of our employees learn and develop in a way that suits them best. With Global Knowledge we’re confident that people are being given the opportunity to take control of their own learning in a cost-effective and timely way, and which benefits the company overall.”
