French shipping line CMA CGM today (Tuesday) launched a training course tailored for its future African executives in Abidjan, Ivory Coast.
Rodolphe Saadé, vice chairman of the CMA CGM group, said that with the launch of its new African development phase, CMA CGM would “advance the skill set of its African management team”.
The new training programme was created in collaboration with the CMA CGM Academy, the French Business School KEDGE, and the ARSTM in Abidjan (Academie Régionale des Sciences et Techniques de la Mer).
Twenty-four trainees from Francophone Africa and the Indian Ocean will follow this training programme in Abidjan at ARTSM’s facilities.
The programme focuses on four areas: maritime, management, ethics and finance.
