Every border crossing is a declaration under penalty — trade compliance is the discipline of being right before being asked.

Customs authorities have digitised, sanctions lists have multiplied, and the penalty for sloppy declarations has moved from delay to prosecution. This programme trains trade compliance as an operating discipline: tariff classification done defensibly; customs valuation with its adjustments and pitfalls; origin and trade agreements used correctly rather than optimistically; export controls and sanctions screening built into the order flow; and the practical craft — broker management, audits, voluntary disclosures and the customs relationship that gets containers released.
What you will do
Who attends
Trade compliance and customs professionals; logistics and supply chain managers with cross-border flows; finance staff owning duty costs; legal and compliance teams extending into trade.
Programme agenda
Built for the decisions no textbook prepares you for
I.The declaration
- Tariff classification: method, evidence, binding rulings
- Customs valuation: transaction value and its adjustments
- Origin: non-preferential, preferential, and the proof each requires
II.The control layer
- Export controls: dual-use goods, licences, end-use checks
- Sanctions screening: parties, vessels, ownership chains
- Incoterms and documentation: who declares, who is liable
III.Running the function
- Brokers managed, not merely used
- Customs audits and voluntary disclosure: the honest path priced
- Trusted-trader programmes: whether, when and how to qualify
Frequently asked
Who are the operations, procurement and project programmes designed for?
They are built for practitioners who carry delivery accountability — procurement and supply chain professionals, project and programme managers, PMO teams and operations leaders. Cohorts are deliberately cross-industry: the disciplines of sourcing, tendering, project control and portfolio governance are the same craft whether the organisation is a bank, a utility or a manufacturer.
Are these certification-preparation courses?
No. BIZENIUS programmes are practice-led rather than exam-led: casework, live negotiations and control-cycle exercises built from real project and procurement situations. Participants leave with methods and templates they apply the following week, and a certificate of completion from BIZENIUS — we do not sell third-party exam preparation.
How do I secure a seat on an operations or projects programme?
Apply through the course page or request the brochure — a course advisor replies within one business day with dates, formats and fees. Programmes run in English and French, classroom and live virtual, and every course can be delivered in-house for a single team or transformation programme.
