International Trade Compliance Training


Why do you need training?


Training is needed to safeguard organisations against the heavy fines and penalties, including imprisonment for the most severe breaches of the regulations. Many individuals and small to medium sized companies as well as multinational organisations have been convicted of violating the export control regulations. Don't let it happen to YOU!
 
International Trade Compliance is critical for all companies to comply with Export Controls managed within business by Technical Compliance Officers (TCO) and Authorised Export Taggers (AET) in line with UK & EU Export Licensing and United States Department of Defence ITAR Regulations.
SO Direct course attendees can expect to become fully proficient by the end of the course in applying a robust FIVE step process to determine an item's Export Status and how to record this information in the ITC recording tool(s) within your business.
