APICS Certified Supply Chain Professional

About APICS CSCP

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.

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.

The CSCP program will help you advance your career while giving you the foundation to improve your company's competitive position and profitability
