    When my company first started looking at Caribbean markets, we would have been delighted to find someone with experience there.

    Usually when we've hired people who have experience registering devices in more than one country, they have been able to take on more countries without much training. It usually takes more training for someone who has learned only one country, or who hasn't done any.

    Its advisable to take course for the US regulations, if you don`t have experience in the Regulated Markets like US, Europe, Australia, etc.

    This gives you more confidence, when you get started working for the US companies.
