    Hi,
    I may suggest you to pursue a course in Supply Chain Management or Logistics. Another option can be Shipping Management.
    I would suggest you to register yourself with various job portals like Naukri, Times Jobs, Monster, etc. and also constantly go through Employment News for immediate help.
    Besides, The Indian Institute of Freight Forwarders, the education wing of the Federation of Freight Forwarders’ Associations in India, has been conducting vocational training since 2005.

    Hi,
    A freight forwarder is a person or company that organizes shipments for individuals or corporations to get goods from the manufacturer or producer to a market, customer or final point of distribution.
    I would request aru.chopra to give you detailed information regarding eligibility criteria to become freight forwarder.
