Are you interested in learning about smart export compliance business strategies? Looking for effective solutions to address an export compliance problem? On September 29th and 30th, the U.S. Department of Commerce’s Bureau of Industry and Security and the Professional Association of Exporters and Importers will host speakers from the Bureau of Industry and Security, the Census Bureau, the U.S. Department of State, and the U.S. Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control.
Designed to help companies create or enhance their export compliance programs, this seminar will focus on industry best practices of effective export management and compliance programs. It is designed for companies whose products are subject to U.S. export controls. The objective is to help companies efficiently manage their export compliance requirements by implementing strategies and safeguards that can minimize the risk of an export violation. This seminar is a must-attend for managers, sales staff, logistics staff, and compliance specialists who already understand the basics and are looking to use that knowledge to design or enhance an effective compliance program for their companies!
Participants for this seminar should have a working knowledge of U.S. export regulations. This is not a regulatory seminar and does not cover subjects such as how to classify your product or how to determine whether or not your export requires a license. The seminar is for exporters who are ready to utilize their knowledge of export regulations to build an effective compliance program that addresses their export compliance responsibilities. While this is not a seminar for beginners using the Export Administration Regulations, this seminar is targeted to beginners preparing, implementing, and/or reviewing an Export Management and Compliance Program.
Officials from the Bureau of Industry and Security, the Census Bureau, the Department of State, and the Treasury’s OFAC, will conduct the seminar. The instructors are compliance specialists and will be available throughout the seminar to provide guidance on “best practice” strategies for complying with U.S. export regulations, implementing an effective compliance program, and developing a written export compliance manual. The instructors will also be available for 15-minute one-on-one sessions, on a first come, first-served basis; participants should call Orestes Theocharides at (202) 482-6751 or e-mail, if interested. Among the instructors who will be joining us for both days of the seminar & will be available to the exporting community, is Senior BIS Licensing Officer, Gene Christiansen, of the Office of National Security and Technology Transfer Controls.
