We urge you to print most, if not all, of the documents into a
course binder for later reference. ITCDonline program is a step-by-step
learning program in which all the material you have covered in
the modules is the responsibility of the student to maintain.
Realize that once a module has been completed, you cannot return
to that module online. That is why we strongly recommend you to
have access to a printer and keep a hard copy of the materials
you have covered.
Flash or zip drive or equivalent
for storage: The program is 100% online accessible, therefore
you must have access to a storage device. If you are taking the
course on a public computer, or computer that is accessed by other
people, you must save your work to a flash or zip drive. By storing
the materials in a backup drive, this ensures that if you lose
the downloaded course binder material, you will have the storage
backup at your disposal.
Patience: The faster the
internet connection and computer speed the less time it will take
to download large documents. You need to apply your patience in
particular with some PDF documents.

program has been designed to enrich your learning and deepen your
understanding of the professional practice of Commercial Diplomacy.

standards of honesty and ethical behavior by fulfilling all course
requirements throughout the program. IT IS TO YOUR BENEFIT THAT
