The portfolio covers strategic sourcing and category management, tendering and supplier evaluation, contract and supplier performance management, negotiation, logistics, warehousing and inventory control — alongside preparation for CIPS (Chartered Institute of Procurement & Supply) qualifications, the global benchmark for the profession.
These courses suit procurement and purchasing officers, category and sourcing managers, contract administrators, warehouse and inventory supervisors, logistics and materials planners, and finance or engineering staff who raise and evaluate tenders. No prior CIPS study is assumed.
