Advanced Trade Policy Course concludes at the WTO
Twenty-six participants from around the world attended the two-month Advanced Trade Policy Course (ATPC) from 28 January to 22 March 2019 at the WTO headquarters in Geneva. The course was closed by Mrs Dalia Kadisiené, Permanent Representative of Lithuania to the WTO, and Dr Maarten Smeets of the WTO’s Institute for Training and Technical Cooperation.
Mrs Kadiŝiené and Dr Smeets commended the participants on their hard work and encouraged them to make good use of their enhanced knowledge and skills in trade policy making back home.
The ATPC focused on: developing and applying practical skills on trade-related issues including trade policy analysis, formulation and implementation; trade negotiations; dispute settlement; and trade monitoring. Both legal and economic aspects of WTO rules and disciplines were examined in a series of interactive sessions including case studies, simulations and exercises.
Roundtable discussions provided a platform for practical exchanges, sharing of experiences and best practices as well as debating present-day trade-related topics. Finally, participants also prepared and delivered a presentation relating to a trade policy topic.
Details of the ATPC are provided in the Course Booklet and the Final Programme. The course represents the highest level of training in the WTO’s progressive learning framework.
