Why become an ICC Academy alumni ?

Upon completing an ICC Academy qualification, you join a group of more than 5,000 other trade-focused professionals who have all attained an ICC gold-standard certification. Our alumni come from more than 150 countries.

After you register as an alumni, your profile will be listed on the ICC Academy website and provide a quick way for you to prove your expertise and that you have reached ICC benchmarks to employers, customers and colleagues. Get started by browsing our range of globally recognised professional qualifications or, if you have already completed a certification, register now.

What our alumni say

Getting training directly from the 'horse's mouth' is more valuable to me - and other people looking to work with me - than having my knowledge certified by a third party who has not created the Incoterms® rules.

Procurement and Logistics Coordinator, Bambaw

"I enrolled in the CTFP because this certification is authored by leading trade finance experts from the ICC’s Banking Commission, making it one of the most credible programmes available in the market. Each course is structured to ensure the essentials of global trade finance have been sufficiently covered."

SEB

"I see the CTFP as a perfect way for any trade finance person to (a) be part of a global community and (b) have a certification that highlights your expertise and automatically puts you at a certain level that is respected in the industry."

Royal Bank of Canada

The course gives you a little advantage with customers to have this level of knowledge and training. I can advise clients correctly and the ICC certificate shows I am up to date.

Logistics Project Director, Canada

Anyone in international logistics should master the Incoterms® rules and this certificate is a must. I got congratulated by the Head of Customs and Transport.
