Qualifications


The current qualifications offered by the IOM are the Certificate, the Diploma and the Advanced Diploma in Operations Management.


Qualification Outlines


Level 3 Certificate in Operations Management

This qualification (formerly called the Introductory Certificate in Production and Inventory Management) is designed to provide an introduction to supply chain management, production and operations management and to satisfy the need for a course which is broader, more general and at a lower level than the Diploma. It is aimed at a variety of personnel:
  • From those new to the profession who require a foundation course before progressing on to the Diploma;
  • Through those already working in the field who would benefit from a wider perception of their role and have no formal qualifications;
  • To those employed in other areas which impact on or are affected by production and operations management.

It also addresses the internal and external factors which influence operational efficiency and examines the wider context of business strategy and competitive advantage.
