For over 75 years, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) has assisted statistical organizations throughout the world with the collection, processing, analysis, dissemination, and use of economic and labor statistics. This assistance has been provided primarily by the Division of International Technical Cooperation (ITC), which strengthens statistical development by organizing seminars, consultations, and meetings for international visitors, either in-person or virtually, with BLS staff. Fees are charged for international training seminars and consultations. International visitors are welcome at BLS.
