We can assist in both the education and training of your international team in a variety of ways:

Business Members can fulfil both own and employee development commitments by accessing The Institute’s internationally recognised and respected professional qualifications.  Formal tuition can be conveniently accessed at a local college or through the Distance Learning programme.

Please refer to the Professional Qualifications Handbook for details.

Our short course training programme covers a comprehensive range of international trade topics and accommodates all levels of experience.  All of the public courses can be adapted for in-house delivery and we often write new training material to address special needs.  In both cases, we engage only fully accredited training professionals, and Business Members benefit from discounted rates.

Please refer to the current Short Course Training Programme brochure for further details.

The Institute actively encourages Business Members to promote Continuous Professional Development (CPD). Our current CPD programme describes 10 ways of earning credits and we hold the delegated authority to award Licentiateship of City & Guilds (LCGI) to all full Members of The Institute who successfully complete the CPD programme.

Please refer to the brochure ‘Continuing Professional Development’ for more information.

Additionally, we offer guidance on the structure and content of education and training programmes geared towards improving international business competence and, ultimately, commercial performance.   Our aim is to provide a complete and thoroughly professional solution to the training needs of all those who work directly in international business functions as well as those who provide support services to assist the international trade process.
