About the Winning Entry

“Chevron Global Aviation Product Integrity 101” is a web-based interactive training program designed to help Chevron Global Aviation ensure proper fuel handling practices at their affiliated Field Base Operations (FBO’s) worldwide.  To engage students throughout five hours of content rich instruction, Pacific Media simulated an airplane cockpit dashboard to create a fun and dynamic user-interface.  An FBO operation character, as the course guide, provides a humorous way to engage the user.  Plus, a series of comedic scenarios underscore best practices.

 “Pacific Media has been a truly great group to work with,” noted Tom Stephens, Chevron Global Aviation.  “I choose to work with people who allow creativity, who bring out of the box perspectives and tools to the table, and really brainstorm what can be done.  The Pacific Media team brings the whole perspective about what technology is out there, whether it will work or not, and then they create a story around the information that will really engage our identified audience. “

Dave Goncher, Operations Training Coordinator of Global Supply & Trading for Chevron Global Aviation, commented,” It’s been a joy working with Pacific Media. I know that they fit the bill for us, and we plan to use them more in the future. Pacific Media seems to have the know-how and the expertise to do just about anything. “

“To be recognized for our creativity is truly an honor,” said Karen Nelson, President of Pacific Media. “It’s a tribute to our entire team and an exciting validation of Pacific Media’s ability to provide outstanding creativity in the arena of concept to completion media solutions.  Earning these awards is the ultimate confirmation of the quality and creativity of our team and the Pacific Media product.”
