Course content
Export controls are a critical part of international trade compliance. Failing to identify controlled goods or obtain the right license can result in severe penalties, shipment delays, and reputational damage.

- Apply for a licence via the SPIRE system
- Be aware of other export controls, including US regulations, trade controls, and sanctions
- Maintain compliance through record-keeping and audit readiness
You’ll leave knowing how to identify controlled goods, determine the right licence, and follow the correct procedures to avoid breaches.
