Why the ETK Expansion Pro?

We are a specialised growth strategy enterprise which offers insightful instruction on how to succeed in work and trade within the global markets, from the perspective of those who wish to do so from the global south.

Members of our faculty have a vast experience of working with a variety of businesses in Africa, and South America – from start-ups to highly established organisations, and also as consultants to major institutions, corporations, and government agencies.

We constantly analyse global trade data, making our delivery dynamic and up to date.

ETK's Courses empower individuals and organisations to achieve optimal performance within the International Business Environment.

It takes a particular skill set to succeed in doing business in emerging economies, which is something a regular business course will never provide you with. Our courses are designed to provide a more practical view of working and doing business in the global south. At ETK, our experience shows that access to macro-economic statistics for continents like Africa is limited, not user-friendly, and unreliable.

Consequently, ETK has an “on-the-ground” research team, which sources credible and up-to-date information that goes into the development of our courses and programmes.

At ETK, we believe it is crucial for individuals and organisations with an interest in working or doing business in global markets to be fully armed with local and nuanced knowledge of the markets they intend to enter.

ETK Expansion Programmes are designed to meet these specific needs.

Diplomats, international sales professionals, trade experts, and corporates will find these courses useful and relevant as they navigate global and emerging markets.

While our primary focus lies in Africa, we have established collaborations with teams from around the globe to ensure the relevance of these courses.
