In 2011, the WCO launched the Knowledge Academy for Customs and Trade, or Summer Academy for short. Over the past four years, the summer academy has grown to include more than 150 delegates from the public and private sectors and the overall comments and observations from participants have been very positive. Various modules are offered within three learning tracks, which are focused on the principal work of the WCO, namely Tariff & Trade Affairs (HS, Rules of Origin, Valuation), Trade Facilitation (Trade Facilitation Agreement, WCO Data Model, and AEO/SAFE), both targeted towards the private sector, and finally, a third track designed for WCO Member administrations.
