How do global companies train managers overseas?

Question

I want to understand the framework for executive training used by global companies. I would appreciate if anyone can give an example from his/her company.

The use of face-to-face meetings – do they fly everyone to headquarters, How often?
What other methods do you use for training?
Overview of the use of global forums for all managers worldwide, point-to-point training between headquarters and a single global unit, and local training inside the global unit.
My focus is on the framework of training and not on the specific contents.

Many Thanks,
Ori

I once worked for a large multi-national company, and we would hire managers from those countries and bring them to the US for several months of training. We would teach them most parts of the business, by assigning them to various departments for a few weeks at a time.
