DIRECTOR'S  MESSAGE

 

 

      Recent Years saw India scaling new heights through liberalization and globalisation. There has been an appreciable growth in the entry of foreign firms into our country.

    International business, as a separate subject, is gaining importance with cross-border trade making rapid strides. Even small-scale units are looking at foreign markets. Apart from this, with the relaxation in the exchange control regulations by many countries, capital flows - foreign direct and portfolio investments - are becoming increasingly common and friendly.

    During April 2002 quantitative restriction on all products has been removed. With the efforts to promote exports and with the removal of QRS, international trade is likely to grow further, both in value and quantity.

   Globalisation and liberalisation have brought in a host of domestic exporters and importers as well as multinational corporations as employers paying salary in foreign currencies and offering placement abroad. To qualify for this, one has to be well-versed in areas such as export-import procedures, foreign exchange management, international marketing, EXIM Policy etc. It is expected that Indias foreign trade will be doubled by the year 2009 from the present level of 0.75 per cent. As a result, there will be strong demand for export and import executives with thorough knowledge and sound practical skills.

   In order to keep ahead of the times, we in Indian Institute of International Business have launched two correspondence courses on Diploma in Export Management and Advanced Diploma in Export Management. These programs are designed to suit your time and budget, following the highest international standards and also keeping pace with the changes occuring from time-to-time. These programs will impart high quality training to entrepreneurs who like to enter into the world of international trade and career aspirants in the exciting and highly rewarding world of Foreign Trade.

 

Wishing you the very best,
