Course Overview
The cost of getting international trade and customs law wrong is rarely the judgment; it is the years spent reaching it. Ambiguity in customs law is resolved against the party that drafted it. Applied research in legal and contractual practice consistently shows that early structure around the wider legal and contractual practice agenda reduces downstream rework. The result is the confidence to make and defend decisions about international trade and customs law under scrutiny. Every module pairs a short input on this strand of legal and contractual practice with structured practice on the participant's own material. It is designed for mixed groups, so that customs law is examined from more than one functional angle. The course gives participants a defensible structure for international trade and customs law and the judgement to adapt it. Buying a tool rarely fixes customs law; the underlying capability has to be built internally first. Work concludes with a self-assessment of this area of legal and contractual practice that participants can repeat annually.
