Shipping and Transport
Do you want to improve your knowledge and understanding of the shipping & transport industry? Want to strengthen your managerial skills and take the next step in your career?
Shipping plays a vital role in world trade and is the backbone of the world economy. Without ships and the services they provide, the world would not be as prosperous as it is today and many countries would not be able to participate in world trade. The shipping and logistics industries are two of the few industries that are truly global in both geographical scope and in the nature of the business.
Globalisation of trade and economies has led to a situation where multinationals have developed worldwide sourcing and marketing strategies. Logically, ports and shipping companies play an important role in enabling the smooth and efficient transportation of cargoes, thus connecting manufacturers and consumers around the world.
