Course description
Certified in Planning and Inventory Management - Part 1
The APICS Certified in Production and Inventory Management (CPIM) instructorled training course is a comprehensive professional development and certification preparation training program. CPIM consist of two separate courses: Part 1: provides an introduction and overview of the basics of supply chain management; and, Part 2: provides additional instruction on the priority planning at the tactical and operational levels, inventory control and introduces strategic planning. To obtain the CPIM certification, participants must successful pass two exams, one for each of the two parts.
While the primary purpose of the course is to prepare supply chain managers for obtaining the APICS CPIM certification, those that do not desire to obtain the designation would benefit by attending CPIM Part 1, so as to obtain a basic knowledge of supply chain management.
