Certification in Humanitarian Supply Chain Management

The CHSCM has been developed to meet the training needs of people who are actually engaged in managing and coordinating complex logistics and supply chain activities in a humanitarian environment. After registration candidates may be required to provide supplementary information to confirm that potential students have the necessary experience to be able to respond adequately to the demands of the course. Candidates not yet involved in supply chain management at a tactical (planning) level should consider enrolling for the Certification in Humanitarian Logistics.
