fall los angeles compliance seminar flyer
DESCRIPTION
If you are a trade compliance/export control professional seeking hands-on, practical application and case study based seminars and workshops, this event in Los Angeles, December 3, 2013 is exactly what you are looking for. Two other programs in Salt lake City (November 13) and San Diego (December 5) are great options as well. Check out the attached two-page flyer. The agenda for this high-quality lower-cost program is a direct result of evaluations & feedback from prior attendees over the last ten years from similar events across the country. You are getting exactly what the majority of your counterparts have asked for. A dedicated team of local, state, national and international Hosts, Sponsors, Partners and Speakers are focused on providing our community with timely, cost- effective, top-notch programs on in-the-trenches topics including jurisdiction & classification; audits & assessments; minimizing exposure, liability and risk; harmonized best practices and exceptions & exemptions. These efforts are especially important in light of ongoing and evolving Export Control Reform (ECR) including the huge migration of defense articles from US Department of State jurisdiction to US Department of Commerce jurisdiction. The impact & implications of ECR are an integral part of each of the sessions. Additionally, Keynote Speakers from the Federal Bureau of Investigation will address hot topics that include the threats to you and your organization of cyber crime, industrial espionage and all the latest on protection of trade secrets. Each full-day ends with a hosted Networking Reception for attendees, speakers and organizers to give you additional time to ensure all your questions get answered. Further, all the programs include one-hour, no-cost, no-obligation, one-on-one sessions with presenters to discuss whatever is on your mindTRANSCRIPT
