A training course on conducting business overseas is to be held on September 29 at the Construction Employers Federation (CEF) headquarters on the Malone Road.

The CEF has teamed up with Suzanne Hill of Handel Export Consulting to deliver the programme to provide 15 individuals from the industry with an opportunity to explore how business principles should be applied in different overseas markets.

The eight-day training programme is due to run over a four-month period.

Mark Browne from the Construction Employers Federation said: "In order for construction companies to maintain cash flow and sustain employment, they are looking to markets that are experiencing growth."
