To provide learners with the competencies required to engage in the processes and inter-relationships across the supply chain to create sustainable value for organisations.

This qualification meets some of those Public Sector needs and is also suitable for the private sector.

Learners who have, in the past, held a supervisory position within the various supply chain processes are most likely to find the qualification applicable to them.
