Book Description

According to the ISM, CPSM is the credential that surpasses the demands of the international marketplace with multi-faceted skills in areas such as finance, supplier relationship management, organizational global strategy and risk compliance. The CPSM qualification enables professionals to gain a clear understanding of their organization's supply operation and enable managers to take an active role in critical decisions.
