SELF-GUIDED COURSE

Warehouse & Logistic Management

CPD Certified

When a business has an effective supply chain it has competitive advantage. This program is designed and run by professional buyers, to help you optimise your supply strategy, deliver better value in your organisation and decrease waste, costs and risks.

This course is CPD Accredited, and every hour spent on this training can be converted to 1 CPD POINT.

Why complete this course?

Holding inventory to support production avoids expensive downtime and service disruption. However, it also costs money and can reduce profit. You will learn to recognise the importance of inventory holding while balancing cash and operating costs. By understanding how goods can be controlled and managed with agility, you’ll be able to meet the needs of a dynamic market and gain competitive advantage.

What’s involved?

We use case studies and examples to take a close look at logistics, transport, warehousing, and inventory management, and give you the tools and techniques required to ensure that resources are focused where they will achieve the greatest value for money.

Is it right for you?

This course is open to all, with no formal entry requirement. You’ll benefit from this course if you are a production manager, supply chain manager, purchasing, procurement or contract manager, warehousing and inventory manager or if your role includes operations, logistics management, transportation technology or materials management.
