International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR), Export Administration Regulations (EAR), and Office of Foreign Assets Controls & Embargoes (OFAC) Explained - complete with all Export Control Reform (ECR) Changes and New Administration Priorities:
This seminar series provides both novice and experienced export
compliance professionals with a comprehensive education on complying
with United States export regulations. We will review recent Export
Control Reform (ECR) changes as well as new trade and enforcement
priorities from the Trump administration and what they could mean for
your compliance programs. ECR changes have relaxed the controls on some
defense-related items and technology, but made understanding and
complying with the regulations even more complicated. The shift of many
military and space items from the International Traffic in Arms
Regulations (ITAR) to the Export Administration Regulations (EAR)
obliges exporters to learn the challenging ins and outs of the EAR.
There is good news in the fact that the complex rules impose
significantly fewer compliance burdens and fewer compliance-based export
delays.
Expect to leave these seminars with an understanding of
the rules that will allow you to minimize any delays in your exports,
minimize your costs of compliance, reduce the risk of inadvertently
violating the law, and give your organization a competitive advantage
and a compliance program on solid footing.

''Great!
I will definitely recommend this course throughout Lockheed Martin -
especially liked the whole ''ITAR perspective'' in addressing commerce
issues and jurisdiction issues in product classification.''
