Alexandria, VA  -Transportation Intermediaries Association (TIA) has granted 34 logistics professionals the designation of Certified Transportation Brokers (CTB). Since 1986, slighly more than 2,300 participants have earned the much sought-after CTB designation. The CTB allows brokers to differentiate themselves within the marketplace by demonstrating core competencies in three tested sections of: brokerage basics and basic business skills; contracts and pricing; and lastly the regulatory environment and legal issues. To complete the CTB Program the participant must pass all three sections. “The CTB designation signifies to others throughout the industry that you understand the operational aspects of transportation and the rules, regulations, laws and practices of a professional transportation broker,” said Laurie Denham, TIA, Vice President of Education. TIA, in addition to sponsoring the examination, also offers an online CTB Home Study Course that lasts for a period of up to 17 weeks.
