Over 25 years of know-how combined with 21st century learning technology In 2020 we adapted this approach to the coronavirus-inspired need for virtual design and delivery. In our virtual education courses we focus on three pillars: 1. Interactive design The GCSP’s virtual courses are designed as extended learning experiences that are stretched over a period of a month. This blended learning design reflects the results of scientific research on adult learning. It enhances retention and the practical application of the learning in the workplace.
Getting results at the GCSP Contributing to more effective decision-making and nurturing a community of leaders who advance peace and security globally In a world where peace and security are constantly challenged by a rapidly changing ecosystem, the emergence of unexpected threats, and constantly increasing and varied complexities, organisations need to constantly reassess the way in which they operate and make decisions.
Building knowledge and enhancing skills in shaping transformation
2. Prepared participants Through our learning platform participants have access to a range of materials before the live virtual sessions. Not only do they engage with introductory content up front, but also complete preparatory assignments such as assessments and virtual introductions.
Navigating complexity and uncertainty requires courageous, creative and innovative leadership based on resilience, foresight and agility. The GCSP helps decision-makers to update their knowledge base, hone their skills and reinvent themselves so that they can actively shape change rather than passively react to it.
3. Engaging speakers Our speakers are able to deliver interactive and engaging live virtual sessions for executives with various backgrounds and experiences from across the globe. We focus equal attention on the transfer of knowledge, the enhancement of skills, and the development of attitudes in a safe, confidential and inclusive virtual environment.
We develop global leaders from a variety of professional backgrounds and geographical regions, promote intellectual and cultural diversity, and encourage the exchange of different views and perspectives. The GCSP offers a unique combination of knowledge and experience, and provides a space for building a collaborative global community of peace and security leaders.
Engaging with the GCSP and its global community is a life-long experience. We continue to support professionals in making their marks on the world long after they have completed their formal courses of study.
Delivering executive programmes, promoting dialogue and supporting innovative projects
Applying a comprehensive approach Leveraging our 25 years of experience, we adopt a comprehensive entrepreneurial approach that fosters the development of new ideas and fresh concepts to create lasting value and impact. We attract close to a thousand outstanding expert practitioners, renowned academics and first-rate facilitators every year. The GCSP’s highly interactive and participatory environment encourages knowledge co-creation in support of innovative solutions to peace and security challenges.
