Foundations of U.S. Export Controls for Non-U.S. Practitioners
Course Summary:
This practitioner awareness course introduces non-U.S. learners to some of the primary areas of U.S. trade compliance that they may be involved in: jurisdiction and classification, authorizations, and compliance programs, including authorization management. This course will provide an overview of these areas in relation to the relevant U.S. compliance regimes, including the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) and the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR). The course includes information, analysis, and commentary that address issues of particular relevance to compliance practitioners operating outside the United States.
The training identifies key activities and definitions within the trade compliance environment to foster understanding of the learner's role in trade compliance. The review of regulated activities also brings into practice the intersection of these primary areas to help the learner fully understand all aspects of a transaction.
