Course Outline
The course explains and evaluates the mystique of what, to some, is considered the 'black-art' of export licensing controls. Too often overlooked within the export scenario, the potential for disaster from the Shipping Office to the Boardroom is enormous, and can result in Customs Seizures, logistical problems and contractual penalties. Penalties can be applied to the individuals involved.

The programme also addresses the new Export Control Act 2008 implemented in July 2009 and gives valuable guidance for compliance with the new orders and secondary legislation for both Military and Dual-Use items. The changes include extending the controls to cover the transfer of technical information, as well as the tangible exports.

If challenged, can you show that you have considered the regulations? There is a big difference between the Company who can show that it is outside the regulations, and the company who has not even evaluated the requirements.

• Why are goods controlled?
