The Supply Chain Management Certificate program prepares students to obtain their certification in supply management: Certified Professional in Supply Management® (CPSM®) from the Institute of Supply Management® (ISM)®. Skills and techniques learned throughout the program can be used immediately to enhance the supply chain process and improve your company’s bottom line.
Designed for the purchasing practitioner(managerial/non-managerial) and professionals in forecasting and planning, logistics, operations and warehouse/distribution, the three required courses will enhance the skills of technical competence and practical applications.
A Penn State certificate is awarded upon successful completion of the three required courses. All courses are 12 hours each. Courses can be taken individually.
