4 Things You May Not Know About Our Trade Compliance Education Program
By Adriana Zamora, ABC Customs Brokers Jan 13, 2016
With the start of a new year and a new season, we thought we would highlight some of the lesser known facts about our trade compliance education program.
1. You can earn maintenance credits for your professional designations
Taking any of ABC Customs Brokers’ seminars and workshops could earn you maintenance points, credits and hours towards your professional designations. Whether you are a Canadian or U.S. Certified Customs Specialist (CCS), a Certified Trade Compliance Specialist (CTCS), a Certified Export Specialist (CES), a designate with the Law Society of British Columbia or accounting professional, you can get a jump start on your maintenance requirements for the year with us.
If your industry association or governing body is not listed above, enquire with our team at education@abccustoms.com or toll free at 888.432.5403 to learn if attending a course could count towards your professional development credits.
2. We travel in and around the Greater Vancouver area
After heading west in previous seasons to Downtown Vancouver and Burnaby, this spring ABC Customs Brokers is taking its seminars east to Abbotsford and Kelowna, British Columbia. Keep your eyes peeled for event dates and details in the coming weeks by visiting our online calendar.
3. We can tailor any course to your individual needs
There is no one-size-fits-all solution for today’s importer and exporter. For this reason we often find ourselves developing courses tailored to the individual needs of our extremely diverse clientele. Our experts break down complex trade topics into simple and applicable concepts.
For details on the successful tailored seminars and workshops we have delivered, visit the Customized Seminars section of our website.
4. You can invite our trade compliance experts to speak at your next event
ABC Customs Brokers’ Trade Advisors enjoy sharing their expertise at live presentations. Each expert, with over 30 years of knowledge in international trade, can speak from real-life experiences on a variety of trade issues. From keynote presentations to breakout sessions, our Trade Advisors are frequently approached to speak at locations throughout Canada and the United States.
To learn more about our current experts and their expertise, enquire with our team at education@abccustoms.com or toll free at 888.432.5403
