Learning Unit Summary

In general, it would be ideal for an exporter to be able to sell direct to his final client with no need for intermediaries. In this way the exporter: reduces cost of sales, increasing the product's competitiveness; is in direct contact with the market, obtaining a continuous feedback of information; he can control the company's marketing policy directly. However, the truth is that this is not always possible (due to the costs involved or market idiosyncrasies) and in these cases the company should seek an intermediary.

  • test_ifetiniucThe ITS Accreditation was very beneficial for upgrading my business skills. I have got an Executive MBA in 1998, and I was looking for a certified program in the field of international trade that should be comprehensive, of high quality, with top faculties available anytime for whatever questions you might get in your project work, or training sessions. The eBSI was the right school for me. I was exciting to observe and take part in the creation of an international mindset. I had fun, every on-line session I spent enriched me with good business knowledge and understanding of people and cultures.

  • testtcurridI found the entire course very beneficial as it allowed me to get a better knowledge of certain areas that were relatively new to our company. I also found the workshops and online sessions very interesting as they provided me with the opportunity to interact with the other participants and to hear their opinions on the topics discussed. The continuous assessment was an excellent method of reinforcing a lot of the material that I had studied on the CD Roms. The availability of a forum of the website is an excellent idea for any future queries that we may have and to keep up to date with the latest developments.

    “Thomas Smith of eBSI is a very well presented business manager. When I first contacted him I was really impressed by his skill. I was not sure whether I should take the course or not. But he satisfied me. He is a person who really understands the requirement of client and can deliver the service at affordable cost. I regard him as a great customer relation manager. He always solved my problem when I got difficulties.

  • testcbroderickThe ITS Accreditation Programme is essential for anyone involved in international trade. The on-line sessions are excellent and allows you to clearly understand each topic with relevant examples and simple explanations. I found the CD Rom format excellent and very detailed and I have indeed referenced them many times regarding daily issues. I also found the Export Market Strategy and Incoterms 2000 particularly helpful. The fact that the programme is eLearning meant that it did not interfere with my work schedules and allowed me to study at my convenience. Most importantly, the professionalism of Vincent and his Team is outstanding...I highly recommend the programme.
