Interested in Becoming a CSCP Host Training Company?

The Pittsburgh Chapter is looking for a local company or organization to host the next series of classes to prepare candidates for the March 2009 Certified Supply Chain Professional (CSCP) exam.  The class needs to begin in January and will meet once per week for ten weeks, usually from 5:30 – 8:30 PM. The host company will be offered a discount (depending on the number of their own employees enrolled) and the requirements are minimal (room with audio/visual setup). Any interested company, or organization, can contact me via the details at the end of this message.  

To earn the CSCP designation, candidates must pass a single comprehensive exam consisting of 175 multiple-choice questions. Before registering, candidates must also submit an application to document eligibility to take the CSCP exam.

To be eligible to sit for the CSCP exam, a candidate must meet one of the following criteria:

·   Bachelor’s degree or equivalent plus two years of related business experience, or

·   CPIM, CFPIM, CIRM, or C.P.M. designation plus two years of related business experience, or

·   Five years of related business experience.

APICS will review all applications and notify applicants whether their applications are approved or denied. Once a candidate’s application is approved, they may register for the exam.
