Excellence CU Certification now available as a stand-alone journey

When we reflect on the current situation of the world today, we cannot help but think of Plato’s famous quote that ‘education is the key to everything‘. He was a fervent critic of the civilization in which he lived, which was rife with corruption, and saw education as a means of creating the ideal society. 

In some ways, the world hasn’t changed much since the time of antiquity. Human behaviour—its foundations, selfishness, and selflessness—remains unchanged. Virtue is still a much sought-after commodity, and education is the best means of finding solutions to the world’s issues.

We observe a growth in trust towards Corporations to solving some systemic problems that politics, governments and non-governmental organisations are unfortunately no longer able to deal with. Companies are expected to implement their corporate responsibility commitments and to assume accountability for their actions without being forced by anyone.  

It is the reason why it is the right time for GlobalCCU to give Corporate Universities direct access to EXCELLENCE CERTIFICATION, the third level of the GlobalCCU Corporate University Certification journey (after Compliance and Performance), as a valuable stand-alone journey.  

Based on a vision, values, guidelines and international standards, the GlobalCCU Excellence Certification, adapted within the environment evolution, will support Corporate Universities beyond ESG now at the heart of political agendas, to:

  • Deeply assess the strategic positioning and the operational efficiency of Corporate Universities in challenging and implementing the SOCIAL, ENVIRONMENTAL and DIGITAL CORPORATE RESPONSIBILITY commitments of their organisations, in the overall business operations and interactions with their stakeholders
  • Decide on the best relevant strategic plans to become a respected leadership lever of Corporate Responsibility through Corporate Education / Learning and Development
  • Demonstrate to employees and external stakeholders that they can count on it to reconcile economic realism and humanism, Corporate Responsibility being in no way a question of image.

More details about GlobalCCU Certification are available here or feel free to contact us at cu-certification@globalccu.com  to organise a chat together to explain more.
