The CMA CGM Group announced the opening of the CMA CGM Academy, its new in-house university, located in its Marseilles (France) headquarters.  

The first in-house university was launched years ago to make the group’s collaborators’ training a priority. Today, this priority is being reinforced with the CMA CGM Academy.

With this new structure, the group’s collaborators will not only benefit from high-quality courses regarding shipping, but also different subjects such as management. As an international company, CMA CGM has developed intercultural courses to assist all collaborators working with different countries improving their cultural understanding.  

53 CMA CGM trainers will tutor 285 training modules, regarding their expertise. Those half-a-day to six days modules will be taught in one of the 11 dedicated rooms. The CMA CGM Academy was also planned as a global digital project, with trainings accessible at any moment by all of the 20,000 CMA CGM Group collaborators, wherever they might be, via the online service providing 450 e-learning modules.

Thierry Billion, CMA CGM Senior Vice President Human Resources: “With the CMA CGM Academy, our Group invests in innovative tools to go on improving its operational performances and to convey its values and corporate culture. With the CMA CGM Academy, our Group development develops along with our collaborators’ skills”.
