"We must not only provide experiences and education designed to develop global competence, we must demonstrate that our efforts are actually effective. The GCAA® is an excellent instrument for providing information about a person's level of global competence because it generates a comprehensive and detailed report on global skills, attitudes and knowledge."
Dr. Howard Rollins, Professor and Creator of the International Plan, Georgia Institute of Technology
"The GCAA® captures the elusive nature of cross-cultural competence and helps professionals clearly identify opportunities for relevant learning and development."
Guillermo Gutierrez, Human Resources Global Diversity Leader, Kohler Co.
"The GCAA® should be used by every social studies educator, for it empowers and challenges students to not only understand the world, but to be globally competent in an international society."
Michael Beckett, Social Studies Teacher and Secretary/Faculty Representative, International Model United Nations Association
"There is plenty of depth to the assessment. I think that it has value beyond those involved with international projects, because it speaks to a mind-set...beyond regional and country boundaries."
Kim Cahill, Managing Editor, Journal of International Management
"Thorough. This assessment has a good variety of real life situations for cross-cultural problem solving."
Will Phillip, Former Director of Organizational Advancement, NAFSA: Association of International Educators
"We are in desperate need for such a measure in public education."
Dr. Bob Hollister, Superintendent, Eastern Lancaster County School District, Pennsylvania, USA
"The GCAA® is an essential component in today's highly connected and global world. It effectively measures Global Competence, including the foundation of mutual understanding, self-awareness, and respect for others."
Jyo Sachdev, International Business Management Consultant
"Excellent questions that call for judgment rather than merely factual knowledge."
Dr. Lewis G. Jillings, former Executive Director and Associate Dean for Internationalization, The Pennsylvania State University
"The GCAA® can tap into a competency and skill set that would otherwise not be easily identifiable or understood. This type of assessment could be extremely useful around the world to gauge the capabilities of potential and/or current employees for performance in different environments, particularly relating to the armed forces."
Nur-e Rahman, Military Strategic Communications Consultant
Wow - amazing! I was enthralled with the Global Understanding section. I loved the challenge!"
Dr. Magdalena Grudzinski-Hall, Vice President, International Education Management
