So I recently received my TWIC (Transportation Workers Identification Card) Card to be able to enter the various Port Terminals on an as needed basis. I feel the need to differentiate myself from others in my industry. That said, I am more interested in providing the absolute best service and guidance I can to my clients. So, I have now enrolled in a Course at the College of Charleston called, you guessed it, Intermodal Transportation Professional Development. This course has 4 segments to it, “arranging the move” “The port of Charleston” “moving the goods” “support activities and shippers”. Looks like a fun packed schedule with some recognizable names of local executives in their respective industries as speakers/lecturers. Learning not just the lingo and buzz words, but really understanding what the shipping and trucking industries do to move their inventory, be it rail, ships, trucks,  will be of great value as I further my relationships in those industries and with their executives. The course is 2 full semesters long so hopefully things will sink in. Wish me luck and humor!
