Q. When did you start offering logistics courses?
A. The Canadian International Freight Forwarders Association was founded in September 1948 in Montreal. It was started by a small group of freight forwarders who recognized the necessity for an industry association that could cater to the professional needs of its members. We have been offering freight forwarding courses for more than 40 years.
Q. How many students have you had up to now?
A. Over the past decade, these courses have attracted an impressive membership base, with over 15,000 individuals benefiting from the comprehensive knowledge and expertise provided. The International Transportation and Trade and the Essentials of Freight Forwarding are the two CIFFA freight forwarding courses offered by Conqueror Freight Network’s Online Academy.
Q. How did you come up with the idea of launching logistics courses?
A. CIFFA’s logistics courses were deemed essential for training our 300+ members who are freight forwarding companies in Canada. The courses are used by members in Canada as initial training for new recruits. The courses are also advantageous for people seeking to further their careers. Additionally, the same courses are now taught in 16 post-secondary colleges within international business and supply chain programs.

Our logistics training courses keep the learners updated with the needs of logistics 4.0 and help them secure their position in the industry.
Q. Who formulated the logistics courses?
A. The course content is written by a conglomerate of subject matter experts working and teaching within the profession. Their expertise is sought regularly to ensure the course is up-to-date and relevant.
Q. How did CIFFA acquire this high reputation?
A. CIFFA will celebrate 75 years in 2023, dedicated to offering membership and advocacy services to the logistics industry. Since our inception, we have created strong roots and partnerships within the industry that we can call upon.

Q. Who would you recommend the courses to?
A. Our courses are for learners looking to start a career in freight forwarding, new employees at a freight forwarding organization, and those who wish to further their careers in a variety of ways. Therefore, one of the primary benefits of these freight forwarding courses is that they can be taken by newcomers in the industry to acquire skills and knowledge. They can also be taken by experienced forwarders who want to stay updated with industry trends.

With their expertise in temperature-controlled cargo, they ensured that the goods remained in optimal condition throughout its journey from Malta to Dubai
Eurocargo Logistics, Conqueror member in Valletta, Malta, who has established themselves as experts in temperature-controlled solutions, successfully transported an air freight refrigerated shipment from Malta to Dubai for the prestigious Gulfood Exhibition. They moved the cargo of chilled & frozen foodstuffs via air freight operated by Emirates. They used perforated polystyrene boxes with dry ice placed on a pallet to move this temperature-sensitive shipment.
“Undoubtedly, transporting such a shipment for the largest food exhibition in the world presented a distinctive array of challenges,” says Luke Vassallo, Managing Director of Eurocargo Logistics. “Coordinating with local and foreign authorities regarding the compliance of documents was one such hurdle. Nevertheless, with our proven experience in refrigerated transport for almost two decades we managed to deliver on our promises.” he adds.

Congratulations to Eurocargo for a job well executed!
