Russian Federation
AGENCY: International Trade Administration (ITA), U.S. Department of
Commerce (DOC).
ACTION: Notice of training opportunity.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Authority: 22 U.S.C. 2395(b).
SUMMARY: In November 2010, U.S. Secretary of Commerce Gary Locke and
Russian Minister of Economic Development Elvira Nabiullina signed a
Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) outlining plans for the two countries
to cooperate on a management training exchange program that will enable
private sector managers from each country to gain practical experience
working in the other country. Under the U.S.-Russia Management Training
Exchange Program, early-career U.S. managers will travel to Russia for
two weeks to learn about business issues in Russia. The Program is
arranged by ITA's Special American Business Internship Training Program
(SABIT) which has been assisting U.S. companies active in or entering
emerging markets. The program in Russia will be implemented through the
Federal Resource Center, an agency of the Ministry of Economic
Development of the Russian Federation. The training program is
scheduled to take place in the Sverdlovsk region.
DATES: The program will take place in late September 2011. The
application is due by Friday, August 12, 2011.
ADDRESSES: Interested U.S. applicants should contact the U.S.
Department of Commerce's SABIT Program for an application or download
an application from SABIT's Web site at http://www.trade.gov/sabit.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Tracy M. Rollins, Director, SABIT
Program, U.S. Department of Commerce, (202) 482-0073. This is not a
toll-free number.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Since FY 1992, SABIT has provided management
training in the United States to over 5,000 business executives from
various regions of the world. To date, over 4,000 U.S. companies have
hosted executives through the SABIT Program in sectors including
agribusiness; defense conversion; product standards and quality
control; energy; financial services; telecommunications;
transportation; housing; environmental equipment and services; medical
equipment and supplies; pharmaceuticals; and health care management.
Trainees for this program in Russia will be selected by the SABIT
Program based on their fit with Russian host organizations, ability to
utilize the knowledge gained during the program to further U.S.-Russian
business development, and overall quality of the application submitted.
Participants will be selected by SABIT program staff. Participants must
be United States citizens and employed at the time of the program. The
SABIT program will pay for the trainees' round-trip international and
domestic airfare to the internship site in the Russian Federation,
housing while the trainees are in the Russian Federation, and provide
per diem and emergency medical insurance. Trainees will be responsible
for Russian visa costs. Trainees will not need to speak Russian.
