Container types such as 20ft, 40ft, High Cube, Reefer, and Flat Rack
Key shipping terms like ETD, ETA, VGM, Bill of Lading, and Incoterms
Common cost components such as origin charges, terminal handling, documentation, delivery, storage, and demurrage
Practical risk control covering cargo packing, moisture protection, and marine cargo insurance basics
