If any of these sound familiar,
this course is for you.
Most people in logistics learn reefer on the job — by getting calls at 2am when a container's gone out of range. This course gives you the operational framework that experienced reefer people use, before you need it.
Freight forwarders new to reefer
You're quoting and booking reefer shipments but feel like you're guessing on setpoints, ventilation, and special equipment requirements.
Shipping line operations staff
You handle pre-trip inspections, M&R, and stowage but want to understand the cargo side — why the customer is asking what they're asking.
3PL & cold chain coordinators
You manage temperature-sensitive cargo end-to-end and need to spot the operational red flags before a claim lands on your desk.
Perishable & frozen exporters/importers
You ship the product. Knowing how your forwarder and carrier actually handle it lets you ask better questions and write tighter SOPs.
Daniel Eslami — 20 years inside
reefer logistics.
I've spent the last two decades working in reefer cargo and cold chain logistics — the kind of experience you only get from being on the phone when a container alarms in the middle of the Atlantic.
I built MyReeferCourse because almost everyone I've worked with — forwarders, ops staff, shippers — learned this work the hard way. Through claims. Through rejections. Through guessing.
This course is the training I wish existed when I started. It's the operational knowledge that's normally locked inside specific shipping lines or passed down informally over years. I've put it into a structured program you can finish at your own pace and refer back to whenever you need it.
Connect with me on LinkedIn before you enroll — I'm happy to answer questions about whether this course fits your role.
Built for the job.
Valued by the people doing it.
Real feedback from professionals who have completed the course and applied the knowledge in their day-to-day operations.
“I really enjoyed the course! It is very interesting and great for an initial touchpoint with reefers. The key concepts and main terms are clear and well-explained, which helps you understand and retain information. As a visual learner, the sections with videos and images helped me understand everything much better.
I especially liked the Mission Control cases where the display panel appeared and we had to solve real-world situations. They were much better than standard multiple-choice questions because they were practical, realistic, and made me apply concepts just like in day-to-day operations.”
“The course is very, very good! It is extremely accessible and interactive.”
“I absolutely loved the course as well. Having ongoing access, I'll definitely keep using it to review modules as needed.”
“The course is really well structured and great! Once you apply it directly in day-to-day operations, that’s when everything truly clicks.”
Built for working professionals.

Claims-prevention focus
Every module ties back to the same question: what does someone need to know to stop cargo getting rejected or damaged?
