Learn More
The
Certified Supply Chain Professional (CSCP) program is a new
industry educational and certification program created to meet
the rapidly changing needs of the supply chain management field. This certification is
aimed at experienced supply chain and operations professionals at
the manager, director, and vice president level.
From
the manufacturing to the service industry, regardless of whether
a company is serving business or consumer markets or is for
profit or not-for-profit, the increasingly important role of
supply chain management is affecting all organizations. Customers
already expect good quality at low prices, and speed of delivery
is becoming more important. As a result, effective supply chain
management has become essential to successfully compete in
today's global marketplace.
The
CSCP program takes a broad view of the field, extending beyond
internal operations to encompass all the steps throughout the
supply chain--from the supplier, through the company, to the end
consumer--and provides you with the knowledge to effectively
manage the integration of these activities to maximize a
company's value chain. /P>
