Can I share my login to my Import Export Geeks training with my friends?

Import Export Geeks limits logins to up to five different computers.

A while back, we got a good deal on some used Soviet spy satellites. We've put these to use monitoring customer access to the training. When an abuse is detected, the satellites will post embarassing pictures of you on your FaceBook page.

Seriously, if you find yourself locked out because of this, contact us, and we can reset your account.

Will Import Export Geeks courses be relevant with planned U.S. export reforms?

Ooh, excellent question! Yes there has been talk in Washington, DC about changes to our export control regime. On one side is business that would like to relax the requirements, to make it easier to export. On the other side are the hawks that want to strengthen our national security and foreign policy.

But more importantly, the export controls we face are part of this country's international obligations under the Wassenaar Arrangement which we can't so easily walk away from. Wassenaar determines the export licensing requirements of products and technology going to certain destination countries. This will not likely change. And as this is the subject matter of Excellent Export Basics: Export Controls and License Determination, that course should continue to be relevant for years to come.

So export control reforms won't lower the bar to export, but the bar will be easier to see.

See what former Defense Secretary Gates had to say on this in the Import Export Geeks Blog.
