What Our Graduates think
As nature and man-made disaster becomes more complex and on a larger
scale in Myanmar, supply chain management is one of the components
needed to fulfil the mission in Humanitarian response. On the other hand,
logistics operations continue to be recognised as an essential function in
these operations in Myanmar. Through my study from CHL, I feel confident
and passion in the field related with supply chain management. Also I was
able to contribute to improve many colleagues competencies in logistics and
built relationship with partners and stakeholders to support supply chain
management in World Vision and logistics cluster in Myanmar. I apply the
concepts to solve some of the problems in my job, making the course much
more interesting. This course is helpful to begin trying to practice the
techniques in my actual work environment and challenge the new initiate. -

"The knowledge I have gained has changed me in so many ways and has
started changing lives of those I work and interact with. A friend recently told
me how their donor was unhappy to see how syringes and needles were not
properly disposed of. I advised him following what I have learnt from
studying with your institution and referred him to your institution.”
Jacques BIRUGURUGU, MedLog graduate
“The course is a broad and practical exercise which made me go through the
whole process of planning and setting up the supply chain according to the
field constraints and limitations. This has given me a good all-rounded and
comprehensive idea about the whole supply chain as one unit. Thinking about
the existing problems and of ways to overcome them was very stimulating as
it made the whole exercise challenging and interesting at the same time.
Having to respond and come up with solutions to simulated challenges and
constraints was more relevant to me as working the field of humanitarian
relief is rarely smooth and always challenging. Because a problem solving
mind is the biggest asset for anyone working in this field.

"The Humanitarian Essential Logistics Module is an elementary course that
introduces persons to the basics within supply chain management. The
classes are not only engaging, but are an eye opener in many aspects. The
beauty of the class combination is that the students are from diverse
professional backgrounds, and therefore contribute greatly to the learning
process with real life experiences. This makes learning quite interactive and
interesting. I would greatly recommend this course for anyone who would like
to understand the basic fundamentals within supply chain management,
whether in the humanitarian world or otherwise. It is delivered in easy to
understand interactive and practical class sessions.
