Programme presentation
Supply chain management needs to anticipate, plan for and service the needs of customers while achieving performance gains.
The digitalisation of activities will, in part, respond to an approach focused on decompartmentalising various entities and implementing cross-functional digital tools with a view of optimising customer service improvements and cost reductions.
The programme trains you to become a certified, operational professional who will develop and assume new responsibilities by driving innovation in supply chain management. Its part-time schedule is compatible with professional activity.
