Custom In-Company Training Strengthens Cargill’s Global Approach

This programme is not just a one-time initiative; it was designed as a reusable framework that allows us to scale easily to other markets such as Vietnam, Brazil, or Europe.

Global Category Lead Elke van Gelderen leveraged external expertise to develop a tailored in-company training with Wageningen Academy. The programme provided deep knowledge and practical insights, supporting strategic customers in China and Taiwan while establishing a scalable global learning framework for Cargill.


The in-company training with Wageningen Academy has significantly enhanced our approach within Cargill. What started as a search for external speakers for an internal training programme in China evolved into a fully customised learning experience seamlessly aligned with our business needs. The collaboration provided deep expertise in animal nutrition and innovation and practical insights that were immediately applicable to our global operations.

One of the programme’s key strengths was its direct impact. By offering concrete insights to strategic customers in China and Taiwan, we saw immediate, action-driven changes within their businesses.

Customer feedback has been incredibly positive—they are now taking concrete actions within their businesses, which is exactly the outcome we aimed for.

Designed as a scalable framework, the training can be easily adapted and implemented in other markets, including Vietnam, Brazil, and Europe, ensuring continued knowledge transfer and business impact across regions.

The strength of this training lies in its flexibility: we can adapt, scale, and implement it wherever and whenever our business needs it.

Beyond external training, we are also exploring ways to integrate the developed content into internal learning programmes. This will allow us to extend its reach, ensuring our teams worldwide remain at the forefront of industry developments.

The combination of external expertise and our corporate knowledge makes this a unique learning experience that directly impacts both internal teams and our customers.

Wageningen Academy’s professional service exceeded our expectations, from logistical coordination to expert-led sessions, creating a seamless and highly effective learning experience.
