Early Bird Registration extended by 2 weeks; REGISTER NOW!
With the year flying by for all of us, the Early Bird registration has been extended to Friday 19th April. This will provide you with ample opportunity to take advantage of this attractive offer.
The Conference will start in the days immediately after the Federal Budget is handed down in Canberra, so it will be a hive of activity, debate and discussion. Accommodation will fill quickly so be sure not to leave this until the last minute.
Within each issue of our Conference updates, we aim to highlight a specific session from the program. Today, we feature the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC), who will deliver a detailed insight entitled “What We Can and Cannot Do”. Presenter - Michael Kiley - GM, Enforcement Operations, Air Cargo Cartel Litigation Branch will outline some of the powers, scope of activities and common misconceptions about the role and responsibilities of the ACCC. For instance, many discussions which are thought to be in contravention of Competition Law are often able to take place: attending our Conference is a prime example!
The overall conference program has been designed to cover many sectors of our industry including generic and topical issues. In addition the program includes presentations allowing you the opportunity to develop your general business and marketing skills.
Importantly for Customs Brokers you will be able to earn Continuing Professional Development (CPD) points by attending various sessions throughout the program **
