"about_this_course":"Freight forwarders are indispensable to international trade. A freight forwarder, in simple terms, is someone who arranges the delivery of goods from its source location to its final destination using different modes of transport. They form a necessary link between buyers and sellers.
This course delves into the basics of freight forwarding and the various functions freight forwarders carry out. It discusses in detail the international commercial terms known as Incoterms that dictate the rules of import and export globally and identify such aspects as how exactly the goods will travel from one point to another, who will pay for which portions of the journey and who is responsible if goods are damaged or lost along the way. Finally, it discusses the processes and documentation related to air freight and ocean freight.
