The Global Trade Team Leader at Stafford-based parts specialist EU Automation has been awarded the Foundation Award in International Trade after completing six training courses with Staffordshire Chambers’ International Trade Centre.
The award acknowledges Laura Radu’s dedication to advancing her knowledge and skills in the field of global trade, a vital aspect of EU Automation’s operations that will help the business continue to grow across the globe.
Laura completed a range of courses including ‘Understanding Exporting’ and ‘Import Procedures’ to build a ‘valuable framework’ of knowledge which will be utilised in her new role as Global Trade Team Leader.
Laura said: “The course has been a valuable framework for my daily tasks and responsibilities, and I found the content of the modules well structured, consistent and transferable to any trade.
“The trainers know what the field of industry for all participants in the sessions are, and use a tailored approach to deliver the course – but there are also plenty of opportunities to ask relevant questions during the modules and excellent brainstorming exercises.
“The courses undertaken helped me gather a deeper understanding of the compliance around imports and exports at an international level and become more resourceful as to where to search for information.”
Staffordshire Chambers’ International Trade Centre hosts regular training courses throughout the year to help Staffordshire businesses update or refresh their knowledge on all things trade.
Laura added: “I highly recommend the courses especially with all the changes post Brexit and the impact on UK imports and exports. I hope that more of my peers will have the opportunity to take part soon.
“In addition, it was great networking with other peers from various industries and sharing experiences but also developing my working relationships with our local chamber who are always very helpful, friendly and supportive.”
All at Staffordshire Chambers’ International Trade Centre would like to congratulate Laura on her remarkable achievement.
