Description of the webinar:

The number of possible games of chess is greater than the number of atoms in the observable universe according to Claude Shannon. In Customs, there are many more variables than the 32 pieces on a chessboard. 

In any transaction, we have the interested parties, the type of transaction, the goods involved, the route being followed, the intended procedure, the non-tariff controls, the rates of duty and the liability for payment, each of them with many possible variations, combinations, and types of supporting evidence.

On the top of that, the complexity of the legal environment is constantly increasing.

Given all this, how can compliance be effectively ensured? The starting point is knowledge and learning. Therefore, in this webinar we invite you to focus on the aspects of knowledge management and self-study:

Anthony Buckley, Chair of Customs Knowledge Institute (CKI) will talk about one of the most effective ways of developing professional knowledge which is to use the questions that arise every day. Researching questions from the workplace, from journals, or even news reports can rapidly develop a wide and in-depth knowledge and understanding. We will discuss some examples.
Enrika Naujoke, CEO of CustomsClear, will give an overview of self-study best practices and present the guided self-study as part of the EU Customs & Trade Compliance CPD programme, developed by CKI and CustomsClear.
