Seminar Series Filling Critical Information Needs For Importers And Exporters
Global Trade Academy announces a series of seminars in the Philadelphia area this June covering topics critical to successful importing and exporting. Down-sizing has resulted in job merging, and often employees have incomplete understanding of new job responsibilities and requirements. To fill this immediate need, the following seminars are available starting in mid-June:
Responsibilities and Compliance Issues for Exporters (June 15)
-- Letters of Credit (June 16)
-- Understanding Tariff Classification (June 17)
-- NAFTA and Trade Agreements (June 18)
-- Compliance Issues for Importers (June 23)
-- Supply Chain Risk Resilience (June 23)
-- How to Prepare for a Focused Assessment (June 24)
-- Financials of the Supply Chain (June 24)
-- How to Write an Import Compliance Manual (June 25-June 26)
I've seen many companies impact their bottom line in positive ways as a result of improved understanding of Customs requirements, proper valuation of product, correct classification of imported items, et cetera. This is especially true under the current conditions of increased scrutiny by Customs, looking for violations, in combination with an economy that is forcing people to wear new hats and do jobs that are unfamiliar to them, says Suzanne M. Richer, a frequent seminar leader for Global Trade Academy and President of Customs and Trade Solutions, Inc. She goes on to encourage businesses to invest in training their staff, Now is the time to get everyone on board and up to speed to ride the crest of the wave of returning prosperity. Businesses need to use this down-time to position themselves for gaining market share when customers start to knock on their doors again.
