Roby
Champions International Trade for Youth
The
"No Child Left Behind"
national education program seems
to be leaving many young people behind -
in America's inner cities - a fact noted by critics
across the political spectrum. Roosevelt
Roby, Founder-CEO of the World Business Exchange Network,
is working to help correct this problem.
Mr. Roby hopes to re-introduce the WBE.Net's
Import-Export training course to the Los Angeles Unified
School District and his efforts are gaining attention.
After his recent speech at the city's New Technical
High School, Mr. Roby met
with School Superintendant David Brewer.
Mr. Brewer expressed interest in bringing back
the WBE.Net's Global Internet Trade Course for Students,
which Mr. Roby introduced to the District during the
Clinton Administration. Wherever
it's placed, the Course achieves great results among
students. It has earned recognition
from the President of the United States.
The Course has a proven ability to re-kindle
excitement for education among young people, as well
as showing them the way to a world of friendship,
understanding and positive business activity.
Countries that actively
trade, to each side's mutual benefit, are less likely
to go to war than those that don't - so this
effort is part education, part peace.
We'll keep you informed about this mission's
progress.
The
Exporter's Can-Do Helper
A
recent WBE.Net Newsletter touched briefly on one of
your best friends in the export business - the Freight
Forwarder. Here's more:
International
Freight Forwarders are your special agents in
sending cargo overseas. They
know all about the import rules and regulations of
foreign countries, export policies of the US government,
ways to ship your goods, and the documents you'll
need to do foreign trade. Your
Forwarders will help you with price
quotes based on freight costs, port fees, insurance,
and handling. Plus, they'll make
sure your shipment is packaged properly and,
if you like, reserve space for your cargo on a ship,
plane, truck or train! The cost for their services
is a legitimate export cost that should be included
in the price you charge to your customer.

Your
State As Export Friend
Attention,
WBE.Net members: your
state can be a real friend to exporters.
Many US states have economic development agencies,
departments of commerce and other agencies that provide
valuable assistance to exporters. State
export programs are growing rapidly. City
and County agencies also have their own export assistance
programs. The aid offered by these groups often
includes export education plus the organizing of trade
missions and trade shows. If you'd
like to tap these resources, WBE.Net advises that
you contact the National Association of State Development
Agencies, 750 First Street, N.E., Suite 710, Washington,
DC 20002. You
can also call the Association at (202) 898-1302.
To find out if your city or county has
nearby export programs, please contact your local
economic development agency.
