New courses in international transport law

Gothia Logistics receives occasionally requests for customerization of existing courses and development of new courses. Our broad base of courses and the flexible technology make it possible to develop unique training courses for a company in a relatively simple way.

In 2023, requests have led to us developing courses in the field of transport law. Our swedish course Complaint handling of transport has shown that the need for knowledge in the area is great. During the spring, we received new requests for training in international transport laws from a globally distributing industrial company.

Transports with different means of transport and their combinations take place every day all over the world. Many parties, subjects and objects are affected. The right of transport extends over a legally extensive area, which further complicates the picture. All legal rules that regulate the relationship during the transport itself are covered by the concept of transport law.

After extensive development work, the following courses are now available. The information about these courses can be found by the respective links:

- Introduction to Transport Law
- Basic International Transport Law

Welcome to study in this field!

Risk management of supplier networks, newly developed course

The impulses for development work come from newer insights into the risks of long global supply chains, complex transport systems and dependencies on supplier structures that often lack flexibility. Gothia Logistics has therefore developed the Premium course Risk Management of Supplier Networks.

Risks have always been a part of the supply chain, not least in the effects of Corona's epidemic. The following articles describe this:

TPM training at Kubal

KUBAL is the sole producer of primary aluminum and one of the largest industrial facilities in Sweden. The Swedish Gränges Group owned the factory for many years before it was sold to Russian Rusal, one of the world's largest aluminum producers.

The raw material for the production of aluminum is bauxite which is converted to alumina and then in turn to primary aluminum in an electrolysis process.

About the project

This 2- day training, including practical training in workshops, will provide an in-depth understanding of Total Productive Maintenance (TPM). The aim is to learn that maintenance is an approach that focuses on both company’s production and its employees, simultaneously.

The concept of TPM is based on a 7-step methodology starting with initial cleaning and ending up in independent operator maintenance. The training covers how to jointly implement this approach in a company. A web based course in TPM including a final test with multiple-choice questions is implemented in the training.

• Asia 45%

Customized training on Safe Food Transportation

In the spring of 2017 we, in collaboration with Gothia Logistics, have developed a new e-course Safe Food Transportation in Swedish and English for our approximately 100 drivers who are responsible for transporting food. We have used the Gothia Logistics customized systems by removing and adding course materials.

Since our drivers are of different nationalities and transport food in Europe, e-learning method is crucial to inform and ensure that the training is carried out in an approved manner. This is undoubtedly a flexible way for drivers to acquire knowledge at their convenience.

The course Safe Food Transportation focuses on quality and security during transportation according to the claims set by the EU and the National Food Agency. The participants must take the course and pass their final exams. Afterwards the participants can print out a certificate that can be presented to a supervisory authority. We get direct reports on the performance of the drivers and can therefore provide our customers the necessary certificates.

The system also lets us know if a student has done an excellent job in the first part of the course so that we can send him/her a message with some extra praise.

Thanks to this system we can coach all of our students, the ones who need extra support but also the ones who manage on their own. Through the system we can support the students either in their course book, by sending them an email or simply by calling them and asking how they are doing.

The purpose of the system is to help as many as possible to pass their courses. This proves that studying over the internet does not have to mean that you have to make it on your own.
