The Export Development Foundation Program has been designed with the new or inexperienced exporter in mind. The typical participant is looking for a shakedown of the key International Trade principles and processes sufficient to be able to manage ad-hoc or sporadic transactions. You will gain a practical overview of the export process and will be able to manage ad-hoc transactions with the support of a freight forwarder or international trade consultant. It is not designed to be a comprehensive program or rt be a framework to develop an export department or internationalization strategy. For this we have our International Trade Specialist Accreditation program and our Advanced Certificate in International Trade. However for those who have limited budgets, this program will give you the essentials to manage an export transaction from request for a quotation through to delivery with the support of appropriate service providers.
