In this episode of Excellence in Training, Shawn Rogers provides some of this thoughts on working with training vendors. Shawn adds this disclaimer-As a company, GM uses many training vendors. Our compliance function primarily uses two vendors. He has worked with other good vendors that currently do not work with GM. He is not promoting any specific vendors, nor is he disparaging any specific vendors in this podcast. And, of course, these opinions are Shawn’s alone and opinions that developed over almost 15 years. He is not speaking on behalf of GM in any way.
