Supply Chain Management Professional
The Supply Chain Management Professional (SCMP) designation is a recognized credential that signifies expertise in supply chain management. It is offered by professional organizations, most notably in Canada by Supply Chain Canada (formerly known as the Supply Chain Management Association or SCMA). The designation represents a high standard of excellence and professionalism in the field of supply chain management and is considered one of the most prestigious credentials for supply chain professionals.
The Supply Management Training (SMT) Program of the University of Alberta meets the global demand for skilled practitioners to support the management of complex supply chains.
