Overview

The importance of understanding export controls and how to develop a comprehensive export compliance program is critical for businesses involved in manufacturing and supplying materials, products, and technology in the global market place. Manufacturers, developers, and exporters all face a complex maze of laws, regulations, and Federal agencies in the process of navigating their way to successful business goals. The Federal government uses export controls for purposes of foreign policy, non-proliferation, and commerce regulation. The consequences of noncompliance with export regulations can be serious. Some violations can lead to civil fines and criminal fines of up to $1,000,000 per violation. Criminal violations can also result in prison terms of up to 10 years per violation.

Who Should Attend

• Individuals at the front line of defense against export compliance violations who oversee the regulatory compliance of goods and services that must meet critical government regulations
