Introduction to the ITAR & Licensing Workshop - Two Day

Dates & Locations (two-day program)
Agenda
Registration Information

It is not always obvious what items and technical data may fall under the control of the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR).  Any item “specifically designed or modified” for something on the munitions list, will fall under these regulations and controls.  Without proper training, you may be at risk.

As fines for violations of the ITAR have increased, the need for compliance training has become imperative. Do you know if your company’s products or services are subject to the ITAR?  You may be subject to ITAR jurisdiction and controls even if you are not an exporter.  The compliance job is never done; it is continuous!

Recent events have resulted in a climate of aggressive enforcement by federal agencies charged with the regulation and control of defense articles and services. The ITAR requires the registration of all business entities in the United States who either manufacture or export defense articles or defense services as defined in the regulations. This requirement is applicable whether you export or not.  In light of the increased scrutiny and penalties, it is vital to get it right every time. Therefore, a thorough understanding of the ITAR is essential to businesses and persons who fall under the jurisdiction of these regulations. Non-compliance may result in lost business, fines, criminal and civil action.

The Unz & Co. ITAR two day program provides insight and understanding of the regulations, detailed information on the terms, definitions and concepts unique to the ITAR.  It offers the attendee a day of instruction conveying a working knowledge of the ITAR and the experience of practical exercises applying that knowledge which was gained during the presentation. Our training provides basic knowledge and the benefit of working through real world scenarios in the workshop on the second day. This teaching process results in a very effective learning experience.
