They’ve proven they have the skills and knowledge needed to succeed in cross-border business, reacting to challenges and never missing opportunities.

They provide significant value to their companies, saving them money lost through common costly errors, and helping them succeed in global markets with the right know-how.

We are often asked how to get started in the international trade profession.

After years of interviewing and profiling CITPs on their career paths and stories, we've got some clear answers for you.

Here are the 5️⃣ commonalities between those who have started from scratch and launched a successful career in global business:

1. Start with foundational training to validate expertise and build confidence.
2. Seek out real experiences, even entry-level ones, that expose you to how goods, money, and decisions operate on a day-to-day level.
3. Build relationships and contacts, as these connections open business and career opportunities
4. Find a mentor, and someday, become one to learn from and contribute to a deep community of experts
5. Stay curious, and keep learning to stay ahead of industry transformations

We really like that last one. 💡🤔
