Course Overview
Trade controls are restrictions imposed on the transfer of items from one country to another by any individual, company, government or public body. They can help certain goods and technologies from falling into the wrong hands.
Our Trade Controls short course covers what trade controls are and their effects on companies exporting goods. It takes learners through the process of exporting, from deciding whether their shipment contains dual-use goods to completing a successfully international delivery.

Get a QuoteThe Importance of Trade Controls Training
Trade controls are restrictions imposed on the transfer of items from one country to another by an individual, a company, or a public body. They help prevent certain goods and technologies from falling into the wrong hands, e.g. countries which have embargoes imposed for national security, economic interests, and so on.
Completing training in this topic in advance makes sure unnecessary exporting delays are avoided and goods can get to their destinations, assuming their delivery is safe and legal.
