Austrade has launched the Go Global Export Academy as part of its broader Go Global Toolkit, providing Australian businesses with free access to new learning resources and live export-focused webinars.
The Academy includes a series of sessions designed to help exporters build or deepen their knowledge, from basic principles to more advanced trade skills. The program is open to any business with a free Go Global Toolkit account and includes three webinar types:
- Export essentials: Designed to cover the basics, these sessions focus on the foundational elements of exporting such as contracts, HS codes and developing a reliable export plan.
- Export masterclasses: Expert-led discussions help businesses work through topics like opportunity analysis, intellectual property, and legal and finance considerations.
- Sector and market insights: Delivered by Austrade’s overseas teams, these sessions share up-to-date information from target regions and industries.
To mark the launch of the Export Academy, Austrade will also host a Market Spotlight series throughout July. These live sessions provide on-the-ground insights into key regions, including Northeast Asia, the UK, the UAE, and the Americas.
