IoSCM Level 3 Award/Certificate/Diploma in Managing the Supply Chain
IoSCM Level 3 Award, Certificate or Diploma in Managing the Supply Chain - distance learning qualification course
The IoSCM (Institute of Supply Chain Management) Level 3 suite of qualifications is designed to give team leaders and supervisors the more advanced skills necessary to approach a middle management role in the supply chain sector.
This Level 3 distance learning course builds on students' management and leadership skills, as well as giving them the opportunity to build on their sector-specific knowledge in the areas of supply chain that are of greatest interest to them. The Award level course requires candidates to complete one of two elective units in either Leadership or Business, while the Certificate asks that learners tackle two additional optional units. The Diploma course is the most comprehensive and requires completion of four additional optional units, which allow students to specialise in areas such as production planning, customer service, international trade, road freight operations and ports & shipping.
All three programmes are highly flexible, allowing students to complete the qualification at their own pace through a combination of study, assessments and evidence of previous experience where applicable.
