International Trade Training Programme

To further support those trading international or wanting to trade internationally, Devon & Plymouth Chamber of Commerce has developed a practical and relevant on-line training program that aims to enhance the export and import performance and customs compliance levels of businesses.

Our wide range of international trade training, export control and customs compliance topics on offer – are all delivered by local experienced, accredited, specialist tutors via a virtual learning session that is not just a webinar but a fully interactive training session.

Suited for anyone involved in importing and exporting goods and services, arming you and your employees with the knowledge and skills to trade internationally.

The people who attend the courses include owner/proprietors of small businesses that manage their own import and export services, through to employees working in import/export departments in larger organisations.
