The FIATA Diploma in Freight Forwarding is now available to people currently employed in the freight forwarding and supply chain industry. Designed, administered and delivered by the Irish International Freight Association, this is the first time an international freight training diploma is being made available to supply chain employees.
Freight Forwarding is the business of deciding the best modes and methods for moving specific goods according to a specific requirement. As a major part of supply chain management (SCM), it’s the know-how that makes SCM happen according to plan, and more especially when events don’t happen as planned. Flexibility is the hidden word in freight forwarding and this can only be attained through knowledge of all transport modal options. This course supplies that knowledge.
Designed, administered and delivered by the Irish International Freight Association, this internationally recognized freight training diploma is being made available to supply chain employees.
Increased professional knowledge - This will enhance the freight forwarding and supply chain services offered by your company. This programme encompasses all aspects of freight forwarding encountered on a daily basis in the various operational areas of freight forwarding and supply chain management.
Course material is timely and highly relevant - The course content and delivery is regularly validated by FIATA (The International Federation of National Freight Forwarding Associations).
