Membership Feedback

Expat Academy Symposium

What's great about Expat Academy membership..

I often referred to the benchmarking tool in the first months of my new role.  There is a wealth of knowledge on all Global Mobility topics.  When the topic I was researching was not previously discussed I posted a question out to the network.  The network responses were very helpful and reassured me I was on the right track.  I recommend to all GM professionals to refer to the benchmarking tool when managing first time or complicated queries regarding international mobility.

What's great about Expat Academy membership..

The best thing about the Expat Academy membership is the community, everyone is very willing and able to help and support - it’s such a great resource to be able to tap in to. I really love the benchmarking service, we can submit a question and get responses from a huge range of companies which we can then feed into our policy development, our decision making and our negotiations with the business and it helps us to be competitive.
