You're not the only one around here who wants you to be smart. GE spends a billion dollars a year to keep its global workforce on top of its game.

When it comes to your development as a professional, GE Plastics takes your education seriously. We have on-site (and online) training courses to help you:

• hit the ground running (for those at entry levels)

• succeed in a highly technical environment

• master your profession

• understand quality control

• learn what it means to lead

That's just the first part of our commitment. The second is the world's first major corporate business school: GE's own private college campus along the banks of the Hudson in New York State.

A place called Crotonville.

Crotonville's mission is simple: someone, somewhere, has a better idea. We have to find who has it, learn it, and put it into action - fast. From all over the company and all over the world, you and your co-workers learn, communicate, brainstorm and network all in an effort to build best practices in one of the world's largest companies.

Imagine it: a real, 52-acre campus with classrooms, living space, dining, fitness and recreation facilities, and about 10,000 "students" (GE employees) a year - from new college hires to the Chairman himself. There's even a pub.

Classes at Crotonville last from a day to three weeks, and cover issues facing GE (and business in general) in the form of seminars, lectures, round-tables and break-out sessions.
