BEIJING 2010 TRADE ROUTES TO RECOVERY
flags_of_China Beijing, China


What was anticipated to be the biggest ICC Banking Commission meeting ever had to be postponed due to an EU Travel restriction cancelling over 16,000 flights around Europe after an Icelandic Volcano eruption spewed ash and dust particles into the atmosphere casting a shroud over Europe for a week which potentially could damage aircraft engines.

Due to the danger, Eurocontrol took the dramatic step to ban all civilian flights in Europe just days before the ICC Banking Commission was set to take place in Beijing.

The Beijing meeting was anticipated to become the a record  breaking ‘Banking Commission Meeting’ due largely to the meticulous planning by ICC China.

The Beijing meeting had an agenda  cram packed with practical action oriented topics.   An ICC China Trade Finance Forum was planned for April 20th and while some of the key speakers could not get to China due to the volcanic ash the event went ahead and was well attended, particularly by Chinese and regional delegates.

The options open to the ICC Banking Commission due to this exceptional circumstance are being considered and members of the commission from more than 100 countries are anxiously awaiting the outcome.

 

Vincent O’Brien, ICC Representative to the WTO Expert Group on Financial Crisis said ‘members of the commission did everything humanly possible to make it to China – it was such a pity as ICC China had planned this event to be a showcase event in the history of the ICC Banking Commission’.

  • testabyrneMy experience with the International Trade Specialist Training Programme has opened new doors and presented new opportunities for my company. The course material was concise and laid out in plain easy to understand language. The elearning dimension was of tremendous benefit as I could learn in my own time and the online sessions added to that benefit. The staff at ebsi are exceptionally professional in their methodology and this added significantly to my experience. I have no difficulty in endorsing the ITS accreditation programme and in recommending it to anyone interested in the area of International Trade.

  • “The eBSI course I followed in 2004/2005 changed my mind about remote learning; unlike some of the boring, largely unmotivating training I had taken previously, I found this course very stimulating and it encouraged me to delve even more into the complex area of global trade. Though I have never met Thomas personally, I feel I know him well through the interactive sessions and easy telephone/email access when and as needed. He comes across as a dynamic person, very knowledgeable in his area and who constantly strives to enrich and improve the approach to remote learningAugust 2, 2007

  • 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.

  • review8Working as a consultant on the road I thought it would be a good idea to undertake a professional course of study. The ITS Accreditation has exceeded my expectations. The eLearning Technology meant I could study in an engaging manner at a time and a pace that matched my busy schedule. The quality of learning elements brought to bear by the trade professionals working at the eBSI was a breath of fresh air after paper based correspondence courses. I have finished the programme but I am still hooked on participation in the online activities.

    When I joined the eBSI, the company I work for was just building up its international sales department and we missed up-to-date information and experience. This programme gave us an overview of all the different fields to consider before going global. Though the program of your local Chamber of Commerce you can find specific learning units dealing with one geographical region or a dedicated law system but you sometimes miss the basis steps. The online learning is also a very comfortable way of going through the program at your own speed and without stress.
