Our Mission and Values

The Institute draws on the track record and wide-ranging expertise of the Trade Advisers’ consulting and training team, our international advisors and our subject experts. This knowledge has been gained on numerous assignments in over 170 countries in all aspects, including recent guidance on the UK’s departure from the EU.

Conflicts in international trade discussions have revealed considerable learning gaps at government and business levels and a mixed picture of sources of suitable teaching. We have come together to build a dedicated centre of expertise to meet the professional requirements of those at the centre of global commerce.

We believe that the education to be provided should be a combination of high level experience and teaching ability, practical orientation, convenient delivery methods, university recognition and value for money. 

Who We Educate

We welcome participants - from the public and private sectors - involved (or planning to be) in all aspects of cross-border commerce. This includes people buying and selling goods and services, shipping products, ensuring compliance with rules and paperwork, negotiating agreements and strengthening business relationships.

Participants and their employers welcome a reliable source of professional and practical education with the added benefit of academic endorsement that guarantees the standards and enhances the students’ career prospects.
