Project forwarders whose first language is not English and who want to refine their negotiation and business communication skills have the opportunity to undertake the Certificate of Achievement in Project Cargo Management course running in conjunction with Breakbulk China 2012 at the Sheraton Shanghai Hongqiao Hotel. The ISO accredited training will be held from 27-28 February and blends the business communication training with project forwarding management exercises.

The two-day course includes learning skills in a practical interactive way that will improve business presentations and responses to tenders that deliver win-win outcomes. Professional and technical communication consultant and university lecturer Rodger Hall has developed business communication training models specifically for the benefit of project forwarders. “This training will strengthen communication skills and deliver a better understanding of persuasive techniques that are a vital part of successful business negotiations,” Mr Hall said. Co-trainer Kevin Stephens presents management tools for success acquired during more than 30 years project forwarding experience.
