Testimonials

"The Rocky Mountain World Trade Center Institute's training programs cover all of the basic pillars of understanding international trade. The World Trade Center has a team of five-star experts in their respective industries. You learn in an interactive environment conducive to hands-on learning. In addition to all of the great knowledge that you gain, you also have the valuable opportunity to meet with international business leaders in Colorado."
- Marcia Wright, TriZetto

"The World Trade Center Institute has enhanced my education tremendously. Although I have a Master's Degree in International Business, I still found a great deal of benefit from taking these courses, both to supplement my learning from people who are actually in the field doing this right now (as opposed to academia), to updating my knowledge base...to networking with other globally-minded business people in Colorado. I have finished my Certificate in International Business through the Institute; however, I plan to continue taking classes as they are a wonderful enhancement to my life."
- Marisa Rybar, Independent Consultant

"The Certificate of International Trade program has been a fantastic learning experience and a great complement to my graduate studies in trade and finance. However, the best part about the program is the networking. Committing to 48 hours of courses may seem daunting at first, but it allows you to network...on a regular basis. Learning about their international business experience has allowed me to consider opportunities I didn't even know were out there."
- Ryan Economy, Student

"The WTC educational classes provided my company a wealth of insight and truly updated our knowledge of regulations put in place in international trade. Without knowing the recent ISF changes, our company could have been fined thousands of dollars. Thankfully, after taking a class from Patrick Gallagher of Gallagher Transport, we avoided this potential pitfall that could have put our company out of business. "
- Glen Gomez-Meade, Entrepreneur

Mission

The Rocky Mountain World Trade Center Institute (a non-profit 501c3 organization) was created in 2001 as the educational arm of the World Trade Center Denver to provide education, research and public awareness programs in the fields of international trade and investment to the State of Colorado and the surrounding Rocky Mountain Region.

Background Statement

The Rocky Mountain World Trade Center Institute (a non-profit 501c3) was created in 2001 as the educational arm of the non-profit trade association, World Trade Center Denver. The Institute was created to continue the educational programming that was originally provided by Metro State College of Denver from 1989-2000.

The World Trade Center Denver license was purchased by the Metro State Foundation 25 years ago, and the university originally provided all international business skills training for the Rocky Mountain Region. In 2001, Metro State decided to stop offering this instruction, so a separate non-profit entity, the RMWTCI, was formed as a self-sustaining organization that continues to offer training throughout the Rocky Mountain Region, specifically Colorado, New Mexico and Wyoming.

The RMWTCI and the supporting World Trade Center Denver are now recognized as the central hub for practical international business skills training for the Rocky Mountain Region. The RMWTCI is the premier organization providing training on the subject of international business today and supports all industry trade associations, chambers of commerce, and government agencies.

As a privately-funded entity, separate and apart from the government agencies that council companies on international trade, public support is critical for the longevity, access and affordability of the programs.
