GCM Training in 2021
CSI's Getting to Know GCM introductory webinar is our most popular GCM training. People join us for the orientation to GCM because they are curious about the methodology, and some of our clients come to a session as a refresher for experienced GCM users. The free one-hour webinar attracted hundreds of participants in 2021 from 24 countries on 6 continents (come on Antarctica!).
In 2019, we began converting our in-person core GCM training GCM Design and Practice (GCM D&P) to a live, interactive, and engaging online course. When the pandemic hit in 2020, we were able quickly to adapt the new web-based GCM D&P course to reach global participants. It has been well received: we enjoyed teaching 32 students that inaugural year and a record 43 in 2021. It is always exciting to greet our diverse student cohorts. Last year trainees hailed from 10 states in the US as well as from Australia, China, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands, and the United Kingdom.
For 2022, we are looking at ways to expand our training programs to teach even more people in more ways!
