Brilliant idea on LGU’s part, enhancing its German identity with the most renowned German festival! But should German education be associated with booze?
Tell me about it if you do go!

I was really extatic to find out about this training course at CCIAB because my family’s accountant nerd has been looking for this type of training for a long time. This course contains the most important thing each and every accountant in Lebanon needs to know, and yet it elusively slips through the Universities’ Curriculum being prototyped from some foreign state, an on hand course of Lebanese Taxation.
You can find all program details here: CCIAB Lebanese TAX Law Training Program 2009
Tell all you accountant friends about it & don’t let them miss the chance.

The Chamber of Commerce of Industry and Agriculture of Beirut and Mount Lebanon (CCIA)* is once again holding its Business Administration Training Programs in collaboration with CCI Versailles. Participants can choose amongst four programs Business Administration, Marketing Management, Financial Management or Human Resources Management. And the final diploma will be certified by both CCIA Beirut & CCI Versailles, which will make you a holder of an international diploma.
It was very hard to find someone who has actually taken this program before. I have actually found one Lebanese expat who attended another CCIA business related training program (Documentary Credit) and he was very satisfied with its practical applications**.
So, Having no further testimonies I phoned CCIA up to check for details. I really wanted to know if it is worth the money ( as I was considering taking their marketing course – been doing so since last year). And this is what I’ve found out:
- The classes will be in English and the professors are Lebanese ( PhD holders from prestigious establishments worldwide)
- The course is built on practical training (case studies) primarily, with some book cramming involved
- Examination is administered at the end of the four month training period and those who passed examination will receive their certification ( certified by both CCIA Beirut & CCI Versailles) ***
- Course consists of a 96-hour program starting on October 5, 2009 and delivered twice a week from 6 pm to 9 pm.
- Courses will take place in CCIAB, Sanayeh (next to Sanayeh Garden)
- The fee is 680 USD per program + VAT ( one can not forget VAT could they?)
- Each class contains a maximum of 12 students (me thinks it is a very good deal)
Registration before October 1, 2009 (Places are limited)
For Further Information/Registration, please call 01-744167
As for me, I found an old email about a program CCIA did this summer in collaboration with the American Marketing Association ( AMA), and I think I am going to wait for a second run of that show. Marketing professional wise this one is more rated, and I would like to believe that they will have something to say about New Media Marketing by that time as well. But those looking for additional backing to their existing certifications in Business Administration, Finance & HR will undoubtedly benefit both technically and CV Karma wise by taking these courses.
Good Luck in your career path wherever it may take you!
* Who unfortunately don’t have ANY relevant info on their training courses on the website.
** Twitter world, and Lebanese tweeps are amazingly responsive. Thanx guys!
*** If you do not pass the exam, you can not retake it untill next year, and then you will have to attend the program all over ( Just so you know).
