Are the FITTskills online courses led by an online instructor, or is it a self-led course?

The FITTskills online courses are completely self-led; you are not taught by an instructor. You will use your course eBook and online learning resources to complete the course at your own pace and in the way that works best with your schedule.

What’s the difference between the FITTskills courses and the workshops?

Our FITTskills series of comprehensive international business courses teaches you the competencies you need for a competitive career in global trade. The competencies developed by completing the entire FITTskills program and earning the FITT Diploma in International Trade meet one of the eligibility requirements for the elite Certified International Trade Professional (CITP®|FIBP®) designation for those applying through Pathway 1 (FITT Diploma). The workshops cover the same material as the courses, but are divided into smaller sections for those interested in completing specific sections on their own or to focus on learning the material one topic at a time.

How much do FITTskills international business courses cost at FITT’s Educational Partner Institutions?

Our Educational Partners set their own course fees and schedules. Please visit the website for the educational institution you’d like to attend to learn more.

Should I complete the FITTskills program online or in-class through one of FITT’s Educational Partners?

Whatever works for you! If you prefer to receive your training in-person with other students, and if your schedule permits you to attend in-class courses, then the programs offered by our FITTskills Delivery and FITT-accredited Partners are a great option.

However, if you’re a busy working professional and you need a more flexible global business training solution that enables you to register for the topic you want at any time, and then learn from anywhere and at your own pace, our popular online courses might be just what you’re looking for.
