Samuel Shapiro & Company, Inc. has recently announced details about its 2009 outreach seminar series.In addition to hosting classes on Import and Export Compliance, they will also be sponsoring special seminars on FDA and NAFTA.

The Import and Export seminars will cover the basics of what you need to know to be a compliant importer and exporter. The import session will include 10+2 Importer Security Filing and the Lacey Act. Attendees can attend the import session only (morning), export session only (afternoon) or both (all day). The NAFTA seminar is being presented at the time most companies are preparing their annual NAFTA certifications.

The FDA seminar will feature Dean Cook, Supervisory Consumer Safety Officer with FDA in Baltimore. Continuing with tradition, we will host our FDA seminar the same day as the annual Propeller Club Crab Feast.
