Dan Gardner, President of Trade Facilitators, Inc. Announces a New 5-Class Certification in Global Trade Program

Press Release-Los Angeles, CA-Trade Facilitators, Inc., the Los Angeles-based supply chain training & consulting firm has developed a five-class certificate program in the field of import/export trade & logistics. With content that is applicable to a variety of business models and functional disciplines, the objective of this unique training system is to arm graduates with the broad-based operational, technical and financial knowledge needed to compete in today's highly complex multi-national environment.

Each class in this live, class-room style program is designed to build knowledge in a specific business-related discipline, while establishing a foundation for the study of subsequent subjects. Created for importers and exporters from industries as diverse as high tech, consumer/retail goods, agriculture, defense and pharmaceuticals, this hands-on program is ideal for trade practitioners, merchants and entrepreneurs interested in acquiring a detailed knowledge of all facets of global commerce. When asked about the rationale behind this offering, TFI President Dan Gardner observed, "In addition to our on-line training model, we see a lot of value in an old-school, classroom based approach, especially for technical topics like the ones we're offering in this package. The other great thing about this face-to-face program is that people can take all five classes for a Certification, or mix and match classes to meet their specific educational needs. The Los Angeles area is the ideal location for this type of format and we'll be offering the classes in Torrance, CA for five consecutive Saturdays, starting on September 14, 2013."
