COURSE OVERVIEW

With growing constraints on port capacity, operational efficiency, rising customer requirements, and changing regulatory and institutional frameworks, the pressure is greater than ever on ports to improve productive efficiency and adapt their planning, operational, management and strategic processes to effectively respond to market changes. This wide-ranging 3 day programme has been designed to enable delegates, in a non-technical way, to learn more about the broad view of the ports and shipping industry, including the important inter-relationship with the hinterland and the need for an efficient Supporting infrastructure. These are exciting times for those countries with developing economies and for ports needing to execute changes to address the ever-growing size and type of ships making port calls. Therefore, delegates on this course will benefit greatly from the hands-on expertise of an industry veteran. PROGRAMME OBJECTIVES
