Dedicated to its mission and recognising the challenging and often complex trading conditions in international markets, The Institute is committed to the belief that real competitive advantage lies in competence and that commercial power, especially negotiating power, is underpinned by a sound basis of knowledge which can be learnt as well we advanced through our extensive training programme.

We are proud of our history and experience, as well as our position as one of the top providers of International Trade Training.

Our Short Course Training programme provides many of the core training courses required in International Trade, Starter Course for Export, Introduction to Importing and Exporting as well as Understanding Letters of Credit to name but a few.  Following on from this we also offer a wide range of specialist topics, with the introduction of two new courses this year, Intellectual Property and Conflict of Law and International Sale of Goods Contracts. With over 30 courses to choose from we are confident that you will find a solution to your international training needs and continuous professional development.  We are also always open to any feedback on courses that you may feel we are missing from our selection and could offer in the future.

All short courses include a professional qualified trainer, precise handouts for you to take away with you, lunch, and a certificate of attendance.  They each also carry a specified number of Continuing Professional Development (CPD) points.  Through participating in The Institutes CPD programme you can demonstrate that your knowledge is up to date with current issues and changes.  Please see the CPD section on the left of this site for further information. 

In addition to the short courses that we offer, we can also provide in-house training that can either be one of the short courses delivered at your own business premises for a maximum of 12 people, or a tailored course to suit your business needs.  This is a cost effective way of having training delivered to a number of your staff with no logistical complications of getting people to and from training venues. 

All our courses offer the delegates the opportunity to further their knowledge, speak directly to the trainer that has had numerous years experience in their given field both in a training and employment capacity, and the chance to network with other people who work in similar areas to themselves.
