Content Enablers' Level II Regulated Activities course provides users with a framework to identify activities regulated by U.S. trade controls by looking at end-use considerations, product type, activities performed within the U.S., and post-export activities. Specific issues discussed include screening destinations and parties to transactions, the permanent or temporary nature of activities, regulation of intangible items, and internal corporate activities such as foreign person employment. The course is designed to be personalized via the CE Curator to present company-specific policies and corporate messaging.

Users will receive a certificate of completion from George Mason University upon successful completion of this course.

• Know that end use and destination can affect whether and how an activity is regulated; and
• Realize that regulations apply to U.S. items after export from the United States.

Role-Specific Objectives
