Seminars on Export Compliance for Industry, Governments and Institutions

The Export Compliance Training Institute, (ECTI) offers live seminars for comprehensive training on U.S. export control regulations administered by the U.S. Departments of State (ITAR), Commerce (EAR) & Treasury (OFAC). Export Control Reform (ECR) changes from the past several years have made it more important than ever to stay current on the rules. These changes can be a real benefit to your organization once you understand how to adapt and maximize the benefit of list shifts from the United States Munitions List (USML) to the Commerce Control List (CCL), as well as how to apply the new definition of “specially designed” in the EAR to benefit your organization.

U.S. Export Controls apply differently to U.S. organizations and organizations not physically located in the U.S. The export compliance experts have developed training for both groups.

Our instructors are widely respected experts in the field of export control compliance with over 25 years of experience in interpreting and applying the rules of both the EAR and the ITAR. Expect to leave these ECTI seminars with an in-depth understanding of what the current export regulations are and what you need to do to keep your organization compliant.

Special attention will be given to identifying emerging risks and implementing customized risk mitigation strategies tailored to the evolving landscape of sanctions.

“I have now had both the EAR and ITAR training and I am eternally grateful. I attended when I was new to the field and the speakers took a crazy, scary set of laws and made them much less intimidating. I left each time with more knowledge and drive to go back to my program and apply what I had learned to improve my compliance. I loved to ask questions – because answers were quick, witty and trustworthy. The speakers are knowledgeable and so friendly and make themselves available for questions – 100% worth the money!”  MORE REVIEWS
