Export Controls Training – ITAR, EAR, and CGP

CVG Strategy offers effective export controls training for organizations involved in the export of controlled products and services.  Our eight hour webinar covers the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) and Export Administrations Regulations (EAR).  Additionally we provide training in Canadian Controlled Goods Program (CGP) regulations.

Training that is Effective and Engaging

Export compliance is a complex subject based on thousands of pages of government regulations.  Because we limit the size of our courses, we can provide training that is engaging and effective.  Our instructors ask questions, answer questions, and provide activities to maintain our students’ interest.  

We know that your export team’s time is valuable.  Tedious classes that subject people to parroting of uninspired scripts do not give students a full comprehension of a subject matter.  That is why we have developed a course that fosters learning and provides participants with  confidence.  

Export Compliance Training Requirements

Regular training is required for all employees of an organization involved in the export of controlled goods, services, or technical information.  This is true for both the Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS), which administers the EAR, and the Directorate of Defense Trade Controls (DDTC) which administers the ITAR.  Both agencies consider this education a cornerstone of a viable export compliance program.
