Instructor
Hi There!
I'm Michael and I am an independent entrepreneur, working in supply chain management.
Having a higher education in engineering and economics, I started my career in a small trucking company. And having worked in this field for 15 years now, I can tell you specifically how the goods are getting transported globally.
Because you know that when you order something overseas it takes around 2-3 weeks to get to your location. So, How is it getting to you from, for example, China to the United States?
I am going to tell you this in my courses.
You will find out everything about the biggest transportation system in the world - ocean shipping.
I am glad to share my experience with everyone.The desire to learn and to work - these are the main levers on the path to success.
