International Logistics Seminar
Full-Day Session — 8:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.
Certificate Issued Upon Completion.
You thought reaching agreement on an international sales contract was hard. But now you have to move the goods from one country to another before you get paid. And you have to do it within the terms of the sales agreement and without incurring a lot of unexpected expenses.
This seminar is the perfect overview of the transportation process—whether you're shipping by ocean or air. Learn the steps you need to follow to move your products affordably, securely and within budget.
If you take this seminar, you will learn:
- Methods of selecting and negotiating rates and services with carrier.
- Standard ocean and air terms and conditions for carriage.
- Whether the carrier's insurance protects your company's assets.
- How to mitigate risk by choosing the proper cargo insurance.
- A comprehensive review of freight forwarders' and customs brokers' roles in the international transportation process.

All attendees take home a copy of the Managing Forwarders, Brokers & Carriers reference book.
