  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
