Volkswagen Malaysia had announced that 58 of its sales consultants graduated from the International Basic Training (IBT) certification. Held for the third year, the IBT included 15 days of classroom training designed to develop sales competence and to provide knowledge of brand and history, and Volkswagen’s technology. What this basically means is that these people would actually be able to get a sales job with Volkswagen sales outlets any where around the world due to its global certification.
It is also these sort of technical qualifications that Malaysians need to have aside from just the usual diplomas or degrees to get the chance to work elsewhere. A global outreach is very important these days. It gives you a chance to go elsewhere if you think that the grass is greener on the other side.
