Export 101: Starting at the Beginning
Export 101: Starting at the Beginning
Understanding the 1000+ pages of US export control regulations isn’t easy—you don’t want to just sit down and start reading the rules. What you need is someone to explain the basics to you because you need to know what the rules say and mean before you start reading them.
Felice Laird, who has 30 years’ experience in training on US export controls, will give you all of that and more. Participants will also have time to ask her live questions during the webinar.
People new to export controls need to know which activities other than traditional exports are regulated. Knowing what factors can cause an export license to be required before proceeding is essential in this field, as well as knowing the three key US Government agencies and their respective export regulations that could apply to your business. Not a day goes by without news of economic sanctions and the consequences of not paying attention to trade laws. This webinar is designed to provide you with a solid foundation upon which to build your knowledge and expertise. This live webinar will give people brand new to export controls a jump start towards accurately understanding and learning the complex and voluminous US export control rules, regulations, and procedures.
