Virtual Campus, real learning
The Covid-19 crisis gave Air Liquide an opportunity to innovate with a new offer: Air Liquide University's Virtual Campus. This two-month learning event was aimed at making employees motivated and ready to start again once the health crisis is over. A series of webinars were organized on different content streams like Sales & Marketing, Management & Leadership, Innovation, Operational Excellence, etc.
