Advocacy and Trade Policy Reform

This course introduces participants to trade policy from the perspective of exporting enterprises. It covers the ways in which trade policy matters to enterprises along different stages of the value chain, as well as the ways and reasons in which TSIs influence policy making and reform processes on behalf of enterprises. This requires an understanding of the value chain of exporting enterprises and an ability to recognise the policy instruments that affect each part of the value chain.

After completing this course, participants will be able to:

Analyse trade policy issues and the ways in which they affect the competitiveness of enterprises across the value chain; and
Apply strategies to enable TSIs to influence trade policy making and reform process

Course certification

Participants who meet the course requirements will receive a Certificate of Completion issued in electronic format.
