  Fundamentals
In order to meet the varying needs of our students, APICS will be offering the four Fundamentals courses upon demand.
 
Often in the past the only courses available to the new production and inventory management practitioner were the CPIM review courses.  The APICS Fundamentals courses are targeted toward the new practitioner, and are not intended to directly prepare students to take the APICS CPIM professional certification exams.

We believe that the Fundamentals courses are best suited for:

 

-the novice student

 

-the person new to the field of materials or operations management

 

-the person who needs practical education prior to taking APICS certification

 

-the person in search of practical tools and techniques to improve operational performance

 
 
 

The four courses cover the following material:
   

-Fundamentals of Inventory Control:

Inventory Functions

Inventory Replenishment, Order Quantities

Forecasting

Warehouse Management and

Distribution Requirements Planning

Supply Chain Management,

Aggregate Inventory and Purchasing

JIT, TQM, and Trends in

Inventory Management

 

 

-Fundamentals of Operations Management
