LINCS Supply Chain Management Program
The grant funded LINCS Supply Chain Management program prepares participants for a multitude of SCM positions across various functions of companies by teaching them how to manage the flow of goods, information, and services in order to maximize value to the consumer. Students can select one certification track or all tracks, depending on their individual educational and career goals. The majority of courses are offered in a blended, 6-week format (face-to-face/online). After completing each course, students have the opportunity to sit for a certification exam offered and certified by The Council for Supply Chain Management Professionals (CSCMP). After successfully passing the exam, students will earn a national industry certification from CSCMP in the corresponding SCM discipline.
