Training & Workshops
Many employees today only receive on-the-job training conducted by colleagues. The main goal is often to get the new associate fit enough, as quickly as possible, to get the job done. This type of training almost always overlooks the fundamentals of the business. It is very common to hear someone say that he or she performs a certain procedure because it has always been done that way. The procedure may be the best way to accomplish an objective but many do not know why it is being executed. Companies involved with international commerce are not exempt from this weakness. Formal education related to transportation is very limited despite the global economy’s dependence on it.
In our experience, employees who know the reasons and the basics behind what they do and why they do it are more efficient, productive, and generally show a higher degree of job satisfaction. This produces better collaborations with vendors, customers, and internal clients which in turn positively impacts the company’s bottom line. We can create and impart a customized training program of basic shipping topics together with our clients. Contact us with your needs and ideas.
In addition to customized training programs, we offer workshops on basic topics related to international transportation. Each subject matter is covered in one or two sessions, depending on the topic. Sessions are fast paced and last three hours. Topics are presented in a combination of lectures and discussions with individual and group exercises when appropriate. Workshops are conducted in the Miami, Houston and San Francisco Bay areas.
