“The ICC EIC course was really fruitful. I have recommended to many of my peers at work as it helped me understand my job better and also gave me a greater view on Import and Export as a whole.”

“When my clients ask me questions about transportation and financing, I now have the answers and feel in a much better position to help them. The EIC has made me feel much more confident and I feel I can offer my clients real value for money.

“I got extra bonus for my work, which is quite uncommon among the graduate trainees. The EIC course gave me an option to move to another field, and it is in keeping with the times, which many courses on campus can’t do. It’s very practical.”
