CELEBRATING


Become a <strong>Supply</strong> <strong>Chain</strong> Leader<br />

Customers in today’s marketplace expect high quality, low prices, fast turnaround, and on-time delivery. To compete<br />

successfully, organizations must improve supply chain management performance. As a result, well-trained,<br />

well-educated supply chain professionals play an increasingly important role in their organizations.<br />

Become an <strong>APICS</strong> CSCP<br />

The <strong>APICS</strong> <strong>Certified</strong> <strong>Supply</strong> <strong>Chain</strong> Professional (CSCP)<br />

program is the first comprehensive educational<br />

program designed for operations and supply<br />

chain management professionals.<br />

n Develop or enhance your skills<br />

n Create and execute a supply chain strategy<br />

that meets customer needs, reduces cost, and<br />

increases profits.<br />

n Increase your value to employers who know that<br />

a well-run supply chain is a key component of a<br />

forward-looking and competitive enterprise.<br />

The <strong>APICS</strong> CSCP program takes a broad view of<br />

operations, extending beyond internal operations to<br />

encompass the entire supply chain—from supplier,<br />

program provides professionals with the knowledge<br />

necessary to understand and manage the integration<br />

and coordination of end-to-end supply chain activities.<br />

knew a lot about my industry, but I was<br />
