The Global Mobility Specialist (GMS™) designation recognizes knowledge and professionalism in the field of global workforce mobility.
To acquire the credential, GMS™ designees participate in three modules and complete a corresponding exam on the fundamentals of global workforce mobility and intercultural management skills.
