A new edition of the Exporter School opened in Ukraine’s Lviv region on October 20, drawing 53 participants from small and medium-sized businesses. The initiative is intended both for first-time exporters and companies seeking to expand their international operations.

Telegram channel @people_of_action reported the launch on Wednesday, October 21. The free project is being delivered through cooperation between the Lviv regional authorities, customs officials, business organizations and Lviv Polytechnic National University.

The course offers 10 modules totaling 30 hours. Its BASIC track focuses on businesses preparing to enter foreign markets, while the PRO track serves firms that already export and want to broaden their opportunities.

Training covers international trade, customs procedures, logistics and partner searches. Regional officials said the program, now in its eighth year, aims to provide businesses with tools they can apply in cross-border activity.
