Join WTC Harrisburg for a half day virtual program focused on US Export Controls under ITAR and the EAR.

Export controls and compliance with the regulations has long been a complex issue for exporters. Determining agency jurisdiction and classification under the appropriate regulations is difficult and requires a comprehensive understanding of the regulations.  The classification and compliance process has only become more complex under the Export Control Reform (ECR) initiatives and regulations.
Noncompliance can be costly and even lead to loss of export privileges.

This program will help you identify what has changed and the steps necessaryto be in full compliance.
– understand how to navigate the ITAR & EAR
– learn how to properly classify your exports and obtaining the  necessary licenses and permissions to export
– understand the new “500” and “600” series and other critical changes to the ITAR and EAR
– learn what has changed and what has not and determine if items previously controlled under ITAR are now controlled under the EAR
– use compliance to your competitive advantage!

 Please note that an afternoon program will be offered on the same day, dealing with Filing of the Electronic Export Information. 
You have the option of signing up for either program, or you can attend both at a discounted rate.
