What is CSCP?

The CSCP – Certified Supply Chain Professional – training program helps you to meet the changing needs in the supply chain.

The growing importance of the supply chain is noticeable everywhere: from the production sector to the service industry and in both the B2B and B2C environments. 

Companies must improve the performance of their supply chain to meet customer expectations: top quality, competitive prices, on-time deliveries, etc. And the integration of internal and external processes, as well as monitoring rules of good practice, is crucial to achieve this. That’s why the professionals of the supply chain play a key role in the success of their organisation.
