Why Choose this Course?
Has the increasing speed of Supply Chain pressures been making your work more difficult?
This AZTech training course links the transport aspect of operations with the wider strategic imperatives of supply chain management. Modern supply chains move material along the chain adding value and minimising waste. There needs to be as smooth a flow as possible. Reverse logistics moving back up the supply chain further complicates the situation.
Technological change as well as a dynamic global political situation mean that those involved in transportation need to understand these trends and how they may integrate into business operations especially the end to end supply chain.
This training course is developed with the latest trends at the forefront so that those involved in transport can make decisions based on up to date practices. This training course uses a variety of learning environments to engage learners with the material and also, so they can link course material with situations from the work environment.
