Whether you are competing with the world’s best to win international contracts or facing increasing global competition at home, it is critical for business leaders to understand the skills and competencies needed to go global.
In its 50 plus years of training, the Export Council of Australia (ECA) has worked with a number of companies big and small to help answer the tough questions – Are we export ready? What are incoterms? Where do I find a logistics expert quickly? and one of the worst, My buyer seems to have gone missing, how will I get paid?
ECA’s Educational Pathway takes businesses from the stage of just getting started on to conquering new markets. The Educational Pathway structure provides an articulated learning pathway that ensures that participants gain practical skills and knowledge of procedures associated with international business.
The ECA is also extremely pleased to be partnering with the Centre for Customs and Excise Studies (CCES) and Charles Sturt University to deliver international trade education. This partnership means participation in the ECA’S International Business Program can be the first step towards completing the Advanced Diploma of International Business Management, more details can be found here. There of course are member discounts!
