What our alumni say

Praveenkumar Miriyala

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
Ling Fong Tay

"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
Houssam Hoteit

"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
Jacques Yee

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
Amin A. Ahmed

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.

Amin A. Ahmed
Customs/Transport Officer, Saudi Arabia
