We are very excited about a
new opportunity available to
APICS certification
recipients. APICS has formed
a partnership with the
American Society of
Transportation and Logistics (AST&L)
that allows APICS
certification designees to
pursue the AST&L
Certification in
Transportation and Logistics
(CTL) with a waiver for two
of the six modules required
for that program. APICS CSCP
designees can waive the
elective Supply Chain
Management module and APICS
CPIM/CFPIM designees can
waive the required Logistics
Management module. This
represents tremendous
savings in time and up to
$490 for APICS members.
In addition, layering
credentials is an excellent
way for APICS members to be
more competitive in their
field, earn more
compensation, and have
greater job security.
Please post this information
to your chapter web sites,
include in your chapter
newsletters, and mention
this incredible opportunity
in your chapter meetings.
Sincerely,
Bob
Collins, CFPIM, CIRM, CSCP
Executive Vice President,
Development and Research
