Hiwot Nurgi, Trade policy and negotiation skills graduate

"The IIT short course on 'trade policy and negotiation skills' provided me with the much deeper knowledge than I was looking for as a lecturer of ‘international trade law’. It gave me knowledge and skills that strengthen my role as a teacher and researcher on the subject. The fact that the courses were given by the very well-known and prestigious trade experts and professors had also contributed to the quality of the training that I received which has given me the opportunity to grasp their expertise. In addition, the networking links with other African fellow students of the program has also given me a very unique opportunity of learning and sharing experiences which I have used in my community service engagement."
