Today’s business world moves at great speed. Although regulatory organizations do not always move with great speed, there are many of them out there making the rules. With all of these organizations comes what sometimes feels to the trade community like lots of changes in short periods of time.
While not all changes are earth shaking, some are. Some are so far reaching that they require the trade community to plan accordingly way ahead of time. How should the trade community keep up?
There are many ways to keep up. Newsletters, webinars and good old fashioned research are the most typical avenues. These are all good. There’s also the more intensive method of attending trade seminars. Physical seminars are invaluable in many ways including the classroom style presentation of content, and the simple truth that the opportunity to network in the trade community is often a pathway to great knowledge.
JAS Forwarding USA Inc. Compliance Team is excited to be one of the sponsors of this year’s Second Annual Global Trade Educational Conference (G-TEC). This is a two day intensive training event in Atlanta, Georgia starting on August 8 and ending August 9, 2016. This is an exceptional opportunity for trade professionals including importers and exporters to interactively bring themselves up to date on relevant and well-timed content related to the trade community.
Join us at G-TEC and let’s get to know each other and learn together.
