York, PA, World Trade Center Harrisburg will be holding two training sessions on Wednesday, January 27, 2016 at the York County Economic Alliance.

Beginning in the morning from 8:30am-12:30pm, Export Documentation will help you understand how to correctly complete international shipping documents. Learn what documents you should be filling out and how to do so accurately to keep your customers, distributors and company ahead of schedule and save time. Proper export documentation is key for quicker customs clearance and while your product is in transit to its destination.
Cost: $70 WTC Members/$95 Non-Members

In the afternoon from 2:00-4:00pm, the Certificates of Origin training will address the need for consistent processing across all Chambers of Commerce. Attendees will learn how to determine if what you are certifying is legal and abiding by US export regulations, the liabilities involved with processing certificates, and how to respond if you are asked to certify other documents. Certificates of Origin are one of the most common commercial documents that are required for an international transaction. Failure of the exporter to provide the correct certificates to a buyer can cause delays in clearance, storage charges and even fines and penalties. Chambers of Commerce are the trusted issuing party authorized to sign Certificates of Origin. In that capacity, they must assure that they are in compliance with international regulations.
Cost: $25 per person

He has held various senior executive positions with major U.S. Customs brokers/freight forwarders. He is currently Executive Vice President, International for Team Worldwide.
