About This Course

The CSCP is a high-level, yet thorough look into end-to-end supply chain management.  Described by some students and instructors as being a “mini-MBA,” the CSCP reinforces and expands upon the foundation of the Operations Management Body of Knowledge (OMBOK) presented in the CPIM course material.  While it is not necessary to have completed the CPIM courses or earned your CPIM designation prior to taking this course, having done so will help you to immediately dive into the CSCP material, and prepare you for success in passing the CSCP exam.  There is no pre-requisite for taking the CSCP Exam Prep Course, however, before you can be approved to take the CSCP exam, you must apply through WWW.APICS.ORG, and have at least 3 years of professional work experience, a Bachelor's degree or international equivalent, or hold a CPIM or CLTD certification.
