In-depth export compliance training focused on the issues relevant to universities, research laboratories & companies that collaborate with these organizations.

Universities and research institutions are the engines of groundbreaking technologies, but navigating complex export control regulations can be a minefield. Increased government scrutiny has raised the stakes, and no institution wants to be caught off guard.

Join us for our three-day comprehensive training on the ins and outs of U.S. export control rules from the perspective of universities and research organizations. We will delve into the details of the export control rules as they affect the day-to-day operations of these organizations.

The comprehensive curriculum is organized to examine the issues in a thorough and methodical manner. Professional export compliance instructors and a number of respected panelists from the university community will lead the training, discussions, and hands-on, practical exercises.

This was an excellent conference and explained export control rules and regulations in a very understandable way. Regulations are very complex so it was very beneficial to bring it down to the “human” level. Speakers were knowledgeable and very interactive with the audience. Made a dry subject very interesting; take home materials are an excellent resource.
