Changes to BIFA Dangerous Goods Training
Due to COVID-19 and the switch of BIFA skills training from classroom to online, we are changing our administration and promotion of Dangerous Goods (DG) training from 1 January 2021. Cargo Training International (CTI) remains our
partner for the delivery of DG training for BIFA members but bookings will now be made directly with CTI. BIFA will continue to promote DG Training
through its website at
https://bifa.org/training/dangerous-goods, linking each certification directly through to the relevant page on CTI’s own website at
www.cargotraining.com
In light of current restrictions due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic BIFA has suspended all classroom training for Forwarding and Customs courses for the foreseeable future. These have been replaced by live tutor-led sessions carried out via Zoom videoconferencing as listed: LIVE Freight & Customs Procedures courses 2020 training dates – SOLD OUT 2021 dates selling fast!
