"Working as a consultant on the road I thought it would be a good idea to undertake a professional course of study. The ITS Accreditation has exceeded my expectations. The eLearning Technology meant I could study in an engaging manner at a time and a pace that matched my busy schedule. The quality of learning elements brought to bear by the trade professionals working at the eBSI was a breath of fresh air after paper based correspondence courses. I have finished the programme but I am still hooked on participation in the online activities."
Mark, Logistics Software Consultant, USA - ITS Graduate

"The ITS Accreditation Programme is a golden opportunity to learn about International Trade. Communicating with eBSI tutors and the possibility to share opinions and views with fellow students meant that I really enjoyed and benefited from the learning process."
Olga, Trade Finance Officer, Kyrgyzstan - ITS Graduate

"I am really glad I have successfully completed the course. It was very useful for me indeed - the fact I was undergoing a western international trade course helped me to find a better job at an innovative IT company already in the process of study. The marketing and e-commerce modules provided me with the relevant guidance for my every day activities in the new position and the comments from the tutors have been very useful, too. And certainly I enjoyed the friendly and student-oriented atmosphere of the online school."
Igor, Marketing Manager, Belarus - ITS Graduate

"I am writing this feedback to thank to all team of eBSI for the work they do and to tell those interested in ITS Programme how beneficial it is not just to enlarge your professional knowledge but also to start a new business career. ITS course was my first step into the international trade world. After absolving that course and with my knowledge of languages I got a job as an export manager in Spain. What I highly appreciate on the ITS course is that you can get from this course what you really need either deep knowledge about certain area of International Trade thanks to the high qualified tutors or you can just obtain general knowledge about International Trade which will definitely help you in your further career."
