In the modern business environment, more than 80% of trade is conducted across borders and therefore, the future growth and success of organisations depends more and more on their ability to trade effectively in international markets. Nations face rising national incomes and growing technology,  and their very survival is based on the development of organisations that are capable of importing and exporting goods and services, raw materials and  components.

It is therefore vital that organisations train their people in the skills that are needed to seize the opportunities that exist globally.

International Trade Management is therefore becoming the key to success for many of the world’s most successful companies.
