What type of training programs does
GFP-DLI offer?
• Two types: – short training sessions and – certified long distance learning programs
• Evolving content to respond to industry demand• Rely on pooled knowledge from GFP/Donors
(accessible to all)• All GFP-DLI documents will be available online or
by mail for anyone who wishes to access them• First two programs under development:
Certificate of Professional Competence (led by the International Road Transport Union), and the FIATA Diploma

Preliminary Results:
• Transport Cost Measures – Underestimate Impact
• Variations in Measures - Different Trade Elasticities – Critical for Policy Decisions
• TF Measures More Elastic than the Distance Variable

Future Work:• How much global trade will increase if one
TF indicator improves throughout the region ?
• How much global trade will increase if country TF indicators below average are brought up to regional average levels ?
• Recommendations on Capacity Building
