What's new in WiseTech Academy: December 2025

December is a great time to slow down and brush up on your essential skills. Because when things get busy, it’s easy to forget the basics that keep logistics running smoothly. 

This month, we’ve lined up three courses to help you stay sharp covering: workplace communication, using technology to streamline workflows, and picking the right container for every type of cargo. 

1) Effective Communication Fundamentals – GLOBAL 

Good communication drives successful operations, but it's not always easy. This course covers the essentials: communication styles, active listening, and how to be clear and concise. You'll also learn how to connect across cultures by recognizing biases. 
 
Designed for employees, team leads and new managers who need to improve team collaboration and build stronger external relationships. 

2) Operational Efficiency and Problem-Solving – GLOBAL 

Tired of reacting to problems? This course shows you how to stay ahead. Learn how GPS and geofencing support real-time tracking, how Dispatch and TMS software streamlines scheduling, and how EDI and API automate milestones and invoicing. 

Ideal for transportation managers, trucking operators and logistics staff seeking to optimize tracking, communication and delivery workflows. 

3) Introduction to Shipping Containers – GLOBAL 

The global supply chain runs on containers but knowing which one to use is crucial. This course covers the full range, from general purpose containers to tank, flat rack and refrigerated. You'll learn which container suits which cargo and why. 

Essential for professionals or students in freight operations and maritime logistics wanting a strong foundation in containerized transport.
