Why Choose this Training Course?

e-Procurement is the method that businesses use to procure and sell goods and services across the Internet. This method of using the Internet is becoming more frequent as companies are finding that e-procurement is not only facilitating the process, but they are making significant savings in costs. This comprehensive training course on e procurement and purchasing management focuses on the development and management of e-procurement in an organization which leads onto the management of the complete procurement process. This will provide an ‘MBA level’ experience in terms of content, instruction, discussion, and team exercises.
