Thus BIMCO takes an interest in all issues affecting the international shipping industry. A common understanding of the basic contractual principles governing international shipping transactions may serve to minimise the risks of disputes. BIMCO helps to improve knowledge of shipping practitioners worldwide, thereby raising the standards of the industry. In an industry where wrong decisions or contractual errors can cost dearly, BIMCO Courses reinforce day-to-day experiences and improve decision making. BIMCO Travelling Courses are taught by experts and practitioners. In recognition of the fact that the specific educational requirements of local shipping communities differ around the world, the courses are designed the reflect the needs of the region in question. BIMCO Courses can be put to immediate practical use as the courses centre on a balanced mix of lectures and workshops. Courses can be tailored to fit local needs. BIMCO offers course modules on many topics, and organisers can choose particular issues of interest to their shipping professionals in their area. Specialised seminars and workshops are held in Copenhagen. Practical solutions to recurring problems in the daily operations of shipbrokers, agents, charterers and others engaged in shipping are covered in intensive residential courses held at regular intervals.
