The IOM recognises that the increasingly global business environment means a greater requirement for staff who are certified professionals with knowledge and education relevant to the international stage. As an International Associate of APICS, the IOM will facilitate two APICS certification programmes in Great Britain.
Certified in Production and Inventory Management (CPIM) is a programme designed to test candidates’ in-depth knowledge of a variety of subjects specific to production and inventory management. Certified Supply Chain Professional (CSCP) extends beyond internal operations to encompass all steps throughout the supply chain. These APICS certifications will complement IOM qualifications, which are UK centric with a global undertone. APICS qualifications can build on this with a more international syllabus. For companies who have several individuals who can benefit from CSCP or CPIM certifications, please click here for group certification details.
