SUMMARY:U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act
DESCRIPTION:The US is experiencing trade growth and regulatory changes regarding international exports\, imports\, trade agreements\, security\, and contracts. One critical element of global trade compliance is understanding and complying with regulations related to transaction with Foreign Governments and Foreign Government Owned Entities. \nThe US is one of several countries that has regulations on legal and ethical practices that companies must follow when dealing with Foreign Governments. These regulations can differ significantly from normal business practices you may follow when selling or entering into an agreement in the global marketplace. Not understanding and adhering to these regulations can have costly consequences\, even if the Foreign Government Entity “looks the other way” you can still be subject to penalties and even prosecution here in the US. \nJoin us for this FREE webinar sponsored by SAPDC and presented by Bob Imbriani\, Team Worldwide. \nRegister

SUMMARY:When IT and OT Departments Get Together: Success Stories from Modern Manufacturers
DESCRIPTION:Manufacturing managers face deadlines\, quality metrics and output KPIs that hold them accountable for everything in operations.
