Export Academy

Our International Growth Programme in Lithuania has been recognised by the European Training Foundation (ETF) as good practice in entrepreneurial learning and enterprise skills.

The training programme in Lithuania lasts 8 days, with 16 modules covering all aspects of SME exporting and international sales. After that, companies take part in an organised trade mission to their chosen market, receiving further training on more advanced topics on internationalisation and sales, and meeting customers and/or business partners. 

So far, we have delivered five separate sessions of the Export Academy on behalf of Enterprise Lithuania. Three of the programmes focused on selling to Germany, one on the Netherlands and one on the United Kingdom.
