"We needed to standardize the Languages Policy", Electrolux Brazil HR Manager Tania Maranha explains.

The expertise in Languages Policy management is what had Electrolux look for CAMBI in 2006/

Electrolux, present in Brazil since 1926, and CAMBI hold a strong and solid alliance, which goes back in time for nearly a decade. What stimulated Electrolux to hire CAMBI’s services was the need to find a company that managed the language schools and guaranteed that the learning process was carried out in the most effective way possible. “We needed to standardize the Languages Policy, with the intention to add value to the employees’ development and the financial management of the subsidy”, Tania Maranha explains.

By implementing CAMBI’s language policy management, the company was able to make use of other benefits: "with this [service], we could use a single criterion to evaluate the language proficiency level, based on the use of business language, both by the employees and the candidates who would participate in internal and external selection processes", Tania complements.

Despite that, Maranha mentions that one of CAMBI’s standouts is the possibility to control and manage Electrolux’s employees through online follow-up tools. Nowadays, Electrolux is a market leader and has their brand on refrigerators, freezers, washing machines, clothes dryers, microwave ovens, vacuum cleaners, air conditioners and others.

"Together, Volvo and CAMBI aim at excellence”, in the words of Rubens Cieslak’s, from Volvo Brazil"

Global companies need their employees to be capable of dealing with clients and colleagues from all over the world. Volvo, one of the main automakers in the continent, is one of these organizations and hired CAMBI’s services to face this challenge. "It is very important for Volvo to be advised by a company specialized in the acquisition of the English and Spanish languages." Rubens Cieslak, responsible for the Languages Policy at Volvo Brazil, explains.

"Together, Volvo and CAMBI aim at excellence, with cost reduction and optimal learning time", in the words of Rubens Cieslak. In addition, according to Mr. Cieslak, in this context CAMBI has an outstanding role, once it works on the management of the language institutes, as well as the monitoring of each employee’s development.

To Volvo, just as for many other companies, building up their employees’ language skills is a matter of primary importance. With CAMBI, they are able to trust this process, knowing that their workers’ classes are being carefully monitored and that the investment made will not be wasted.
