ADVANCED LETTER OF CREDIT WORKSHOP
Date:
August 16, 2007 Location: The Greenspoint Club
If you
know all of the LC Basics and have been preparing documents for quite
some time, then this is the workshop for you.
The focus
of the full day workshop is to take as much of the 'gamble' out of
document presentation. What tips can the actual Bank Document Checker
give you so your documents will be discrepancy free and get the
beneficiary paid as quickly as possible?
If you
are a shipper and have someone else do your documents, demand that they
go or drag them to this meeting. You can not afford to miss this
meeting. Getting away from the office for one day is a small price to
pay for Clean Documents!
Instructors:
Madeline Sprague - VP JPMorgan Chase Bank
Leslye Clayborne - Lead Checker JPMorgan
Chase
This is
an Advanced Class, beginners beware- we will not be re-living the whole
LC Process. Feel free to bring in your case study questions.
Date:
August 16th
Cost:
$ 250.00 per member
$ 285.00 per non member
Included
are Coffee and Continental Breakfast Service, Full Italian Buffet Lunch,
Full Day Beverage Station
