MARK GOODGER - RECEIVES ICC ACCREDITED TRAIN-THE-TRAINER CERTIFICATION STATUS
The International Chamber of Commerce (ICC) has expressed serious concerns in relation to unaccredited training on the new Incoterms® 2010 Rules that are being delivered in Southern Africa. The ICC South Africa has selected Mr Mark Goodger and Mrs Linda Holtes to attend the Master Training Classes which were delivered in Paris at the ICC Headquarters. Mark Goodger and Linda Holtes are therefore accredited to deliver Train-the-Trainer classes in this field. Click to view Certificate.
75% of arbitration cases referred to the International Chamber of Commerce resulted from the incorrect use of INCOTERMS 2000.
ONLY those who are accredited by the International Chamber of Commerce to train the Incoterms® 2010 Rules have been given EXCLUSIVE INSIGHTS to equip companies to minimise risks, capitalise on the opportunities and to award the ICC Certificates.
