Leading Provider of Global Trade Management
Solutions Adds Comprehensive Portfolio of Training Services
Amber Road (NYSE: AMBR), a leading provider of global trade
management (GTM) solutions, announced today that it has launched a
comprehensive global trade management training practice known as
the Global Trade Academy™.
The Global Trade Academy provides rich training and professional
development to industry professionals in the areas of customs and
trade compliance, import and export management, global logistics,
risk assessment and international commerce. At launch, it offers
over 60 courses, spanning instructor led in-classroom and web-based
training, as well as computer-based training designed for the U.S.,
European and Chinese markets.
Representative training courses offered by the Global Trade
Academy include:
- Certified Classification Specialist
(CCLS)™
- C-TPAT: Application to Validation
- Duty Drawback Specialist (DBS)™
- Export Control Certification Specialist
(EXCS)™
In the Chief Supply Chain Officer Report of 2014, Supply Chain
World outlined ten key topics of supply chain management practices
and perceptions, with input from over 1,000 executives.
Developing the professional skills required to deliver on strategic
programs was cited as both a key success factor and challenge. In
fact, 43 percent of supply chain executives — almost double the
figure from 2011 — noted that talent acquisition and development
has become much harder.
It takes years to develop global trade professionals, and talent
is in very short supply. Organizations are constantly searching for
ways to develop in-house talent. By addressing this need, the
Global Trade Academy helps Amber Road deliver on its mission of
being a full service partner to its customers in all things related
to global trade.
“Global trade management is a complex and dynamic field,” said
Jim Preuninger, CEO of Amber Road. “Organizations require
knowledgeable in-house trade professionals to understand trade
regulations and implement global supply chain strategies,
particularly as it relates to their specific products, processes
and geographies. Our best software customers are also those who
invest in talent development. By adding the Global Trade Academy to
our portfolio, we can meet this need and simultaneously be a
one-stop-shop for our customers.”
“We help companies to grow in-house global trade management
talent through world class training,” said Suzanne Richer,
director, trade advisory practice at Amber Road. “While Amber
Road’s GTM software and Global Knowledge® content is designed to
automate trade compliance checks and optimize global logistics
decisions, organizations still require knowledgeable people who
understand the complexities of global trade to best implement and
utilize Amber Road’s solutions. That’s the need we fulfill. I am
very excited to join Amber Road to lead the launch of the Global
Trade Academy at this firm.”
