Prefair Training for BIFA to IMM Cologne 2020

On 15 Nov, SIPPO delivered a short training programme for BIFA to prepare 3 BSO staff members and 9 staff members of 7 companies to join the Vietnam International Furniture Fair (VIFF) in Ho Chi Minh City (27-30 Nov 2019) and the international fair IMM in Cologne, Germany  (13-19 Jan 2020).  SIPPO used training materials developed from SIPPO’s COP. Besides the SIPPO team and international expert, the training programme also mobilized local trainers from the Vietnam Chamber of Commerce and Industry (VCCI) together with a graduate from CBI’s Export Coaching Program (who used to work in Vietnam's Handicraft Exporters Association) and another national trainer from a BSO, all to share their experience. These trainers were certified under a recently completed SECO-funded project to Vietrade.
