Past Presidents Night
Certifications

Companies today are growing ever more demanding in their education requirements for both the Purchasing and Planning fields. Whereas in the past a high school diploma may have been adequate, a college degree and certification can now be the minimum, and some companies are even requiring dual certification. Certification will not only make you more valuable to your own company, it will help you do your job better and do your job more efficiently.

The purpose of the next PDM is to illustrate what certifications are out there, explain the benefits of each, and hopefully motivate you to improve yourself (and hopefully improve your net worth) by getting certified.

We will be covering all the certifications available through APICS and ISM. These include CPIM, CIRM, CSCP, C.P.M., and APP.
