SUPPLY CHAIN AND LOGISTICS MANAGEMENT TRAINING
RATIONALE
Companies have substantially improved their performance not only by overhauling their internal logistics, but also by managing more effectively their external links with suppliers. This has become known as Supply Chain Management. These developments have created a healthy demand for well-qualified Logistics and Supply Chain Managers in most sectors of the economy. Workers in the logistics and supply chain management field make sure that goods and services get into the hands of consumers. The logistics industry is an important driver of economic growth and development. All types of businesses, big and small, need Logistics Managers to help with inventory and receivable accounts. A small business may have one person in charge of these duties, while large corporations have entire logistics and supply chain departments. Supply Chain Management is becoming increasingly important for organisations and at the same time more challenging for the individuals responsible. On one hand, markets are increasing in both volatility and complexity, whilst on the supply side; globalisation is leading to lengthening of the supply chains, often associated with greater vulnerability to interruptions and delays. Therefore, this course will help its participants understand the latest trend in supply chain and logistics management and issues that occur in the current dynamic environment.
