Feedback from our training course participants has been extremely positive. Below are some of their comments from our courses in September 2010 at Sussex, and November 2010 in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia:
"I think that TS is excellent because it is useful and (practical) for many users not only researchers but policy makers and students"
|
"TradeSift has greatly enhanced my Job and my Director is particularly pleased that I was able to use it to analyse trade data and draw inference on the implications of the GSTP and D8 Preferential Trade Agreements for Nigeria. It is for this reason that he is calling for the Training of more Officers."
|
"All the three sessions- conceptual, demo and hands-on have been quite valuable. The experience top has been very useful"
|
"I am not an economist so the possibility of being able to calculate and analyse economic indicators with the assistance of TS is amazing and most valuable. I found the hands-on sessions most fun"
|
"Very useful, well organised, well thought out. Will recommend it to colleagues. Congrats to the InterAnalysis team. l thank you very much"
|
"Thanks a lot for inviting me to the TS training programme. This is really a great job and the most fantastic program that I've ever seen in trade analysis, Well done!"
|
"Such type of training on TradeSift should have continuity. Since it is very useful tool, it should not be one time training"
|
"Let me join all others in thanking you and the entire TradeSift team for the excellent opportunity provided to all of us. It was a different experience altogether, with the distinction of being a neatly balanced learning program: Tutorials, Practical demonstrations, and the hands-on approach. Above all, constant supervision by your dedicated team during the latter part of the program was found to be the most useful element of the learning approach. I am sure that the skills we learnt should go a long way to the benefit of our respective countries in special, and the global trade in general."
|
"Let me tell you, without any hesitation, that our WTO mission is already examining the possibility of incorporating this scheme of data analyses into our regular training courses for the Trade officers prior to their departure to respective serving stations abroad."
|
"My sincere thanks to you and your colleagues for this opportunity, value addition and of course for your hospitality. This will indeed bring qualitative and quantitative addition in our work. I look forward to stay in touch with you, your colleagues and my colleagues in the course."
|
"Dear all, what else can I say if not a million thanks to the TradeSift team. As for me it was a life time experience which can never be erased from my memory, most especially for the fact that I am the first Nigerian to undertake this training course. I hope that this network of trade experts will continue to increase with time."
|
"Thank you so much for having invited us to participate in this groundbreaking innovative experience. It was truly a very enlightening and informative training course."
|
"Thank you all so much for the enthusiasm and unwavering support during the course of the training. I believe we learnt a lot and the course generated an analytical interest in trade policy issues in all of us thanks to TradeSift and InterAnalysis team. This marks the beginning of a fruitful global TradeSift network."
|
"Dear TradeSift team and all classmate, It is really great to participate in the very useful course and meet many interesting people here. I would like to express my gratitude to all of you and especially TradeSift team bringing to me knowledge and tool to analyse Trade Policy. I have just come back to Vietnam safely and I am using the software. I will report any inconvenience while using it to you for upgrading. I hope the software will be popular all over the world!"
|
"I take the opportunity to thank TradeSift team for their great work. I was really delighted to attend TradeSift course. I think the course was really very fruitful. I personally overwhelmingly benefitted from the course. I firmly believe every participant had the same feelings."
|
"Let me join my colleagues in thanking you and your team for a job well done. I'm glad I was invited for this useful trade policy course. Without doubt, the knowledge and experience gained during the 5-day course will be shared with my colleagues in my home country. The course will assist my country a lot in analysing trade policies as well as other developing countries."
