CERTIFICATE PROGRAMME IN EXPORT-IMPORT MANAGMENT
(Online)

Increasing globalization and liberalization of the world economy has seen a rapid increase not only in the
growth of the international trade but also in the complex nature of problems posed by sweeping changes
in the systems of international business. The opportunities and challenges presented by the increasing
internationalization of business are growing and to manage them successfully the need for the
knowledgeable and skilled professionals/managers is assiduously growing. This program therefore equip
the students with a comprehensive knowledge and skills on various aspects of International business
including the structure of International trade operations, regulatory guidelines, documentary formalities,
shipping documents, packaging, security in international trade , transaction cost , freight forwarding ,
logistics and role of the other intermediaries etc.

In light of recession in the traditional markets of EU and USA, it becomes important to take an initiative
to diversify our export markets and offset the inherent disadvantage for the exporters in emerging markets
of Africa, Latin America, Oceania and CIS countries such as credit risks, higher trade costs etc., through
appropriate policy instruments. New emerging markets have been given a special focus to enable
competitive exports by deputing additional resources under the Market Development Assistance Scheme
and Market Access Initiative Scheme. Further in light of various WTO agreements and initiatives taken by
India towards signing of various regional and bilateral trading agreements, it does make sense for Indian
exporters to consider diversifying from the traditional markets of USA, EU and Japan etc to new emerging
economies including LAC, Africa, ASEAN, Korea and other Asian markets etc.

Understanding that the export diversification is the need of hour, both start- up companies as well as
established firms are looking forward to the managers having an in-depth understanding of doing business
across various global markets and thus enabling companies to develop customized business plan and
market entry strategies and thus prove to be an asset for firms expansion plans. The program thus
coincides with the FTP declaration of doubling Indias exports of goods and services by 2020 through
enhanced market access across the world and diversification of export markets be developing this requisite
capability of understanding newer markets amongst our managers.

The primary objective of the program therefore is to build knowledge on the key aspects of export/import
management, for participants in different cities across India and in the neighboring countries. Regular
evaluation ensures that the participant has, indeed, imbibed both the knowledge and its applications thus
enabling them to become the world class professionals and entrepreneurs in the fast changing global
environment.
