Knowledge in Bite-Size Chunks
These Bite-Size Chunks address the required knowledge base for a person to operate successfully in a range of functions within international trade and the developments and changes which are continually taking place. The market place is global, companies sell to and buy from many countries, the competition is intense and any company which has a product or service to sell must think in global terms if they are to succeed. All staff working in these companies have to be aware of the changing business environment and of the need to deal with and supply the needs of their customers as effectively as possible. That can only be achieved by gaining a good grounding in the day-to-day operations of international trade.
