As a successful and approved partnership model, the BMWK (formerly BMWi) Manager Training Programme started in 1997. The programme’s success is a result of the right mix of imparting knowledge and business practice. Through interactive and practice-oriented training sessions, the participants develop management skills, which prepare them for doing business with German companies. This includes learning specifics of German business culture and improving their business attitude and negotiating techniques. During company visits, the participants experience German companies first-hand, including their technology and equipment, through which they come into direct contact with potential business partners. For both participating parties, namely German companies and companies from 18 partner countries, outstanding economic advantages are possible by providing access to the other market. CI is part of the expert pool for executing the manager training programme.
