Business Wire, July 27, 2004
ELKRIDGE, Md. -- The American Society for Training and Development (ASTD) presented "Excellence in Practice" citations to Ford Motor Company and General Physics Corporation (GP), a subsidiary of GP Strategies Corporation (NYSE:GPX), for the blended learning solution supporting the Consumer Driven 6-Sigma Green Belt program. Accepted by representatives of Ford Motor Company and GP, the citations were presented at the International Conference & Exposition in Washington, DC.
The ASTD awards program recognizes outstanding contributions and achievements in advancing learning and performance in the workplace. GP personnel worked closely with the Ford Motor Customer to convert an existing five-day program into the blended solution, reducing time in training by approximately thirty percent and accelerating program rollout. In addition, the program was also recognized with an Award of Excellence from the International Society for Performance Improvement (ISPI) earlier this year.
