Program Description

Do you want a career where no two days are the same and where your communication skills and ability to think-up creative solutions will be highly valued?Recent events such as Covid and Brexit have shown how vital our supply chains are. Ensuring the right products are in the right place at the right time and at the right cost is hugely important to life as we know it. What's more, we need to make sure those supply chains are sustainable and aren't harming our environment.On this course you'll learn risk management, strategic management, logistics management and how to procure goods and manage supply lines. You'll use professional software, systems and tools and explore the ethics and sustainability of global supply chains. You'll graduate with a set of management and specialist skills that will be hugely in demand in the workplace.
"Demand for supply chain talent is at an all-time high, as more and more companies have recognised how important supply chain management is to their success."DHL
