Who this is for

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.

01 / FORWARDERS

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.

02 / SHIPPING LINES

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.

03 / 3PL

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.

04 / EXPORTERS

Perishable & pharma exporters

You ship the product. Knowing how your forwarder and carrier actually handle it lets you ask better questions and write tighter SOPs.

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.
