Virtual workshop - Global
Description
The Course on the WTO Agreement on Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) for Colombian government officials will be conducted virtually from Geneva, Switzerland. The course programme is divided into two components: an asynchronous learning component (individual and preparatory reading) and a synchronous (or "live") learning component, where participants will have the opportunity to interact with each other and with the instructors.
The asynchronous component is spread over two weeks (22 and 24 June/27 and 29 July), each of which precedes the synchronous learning week and allows participants to familiarise themselves with the training material that the trainer will make available to them.
The synchronous component is composed of four sessions of 90 minutes each, at a rate of two sessions per week (please see the course programme).
