Optimizing the flow of products and services as they are planned, sourced, made, delivered, and returned can give your organization a competitive edge.
This is buttressed by the outcome of a survey by Deloitte which showed that 79% of organizations with high-performing supply chains achieve revenue growth superior to the average within their industries. And conversely, just 8% of organizations with less capable supply chains report above-average growth.
These figures highlight how critical supply chain management is to business success. Yet organizations often underestimate its importance. Perhaps, because supply chain performance issues manifest symptoms that could easily be mistaken to be indicative of other problems.
Some of such symptoms are as follows:
So if you recognize any of these problems within your organization, it’s likely to be due to suboptimal supply chain management. And this course will help.
It is designed to give participants the tools to effectively handle logistics and supply chain management for their organization. They will learn the key concepts of supply chain management, including the basic flow, core models, supply chain drivers, key metrics, benchmarking techniques, and ideas for taking their organization’s supply chain to the next level.
In an interactive manner, this easy-to-understand course starts with the fundamentals, and then narrows the participants’ focus to various aspects of the supply chain itself and how to manipulate and maintain them to their best advantage.

The LearnSmart Advantage
Flexible, Participant-Paced Learning
All LearnSmart courses are delivered online through our interactive learning platform, allowing participants to learn wherever and whenever it is convenient.
Using the unique login details we provide, participants simply access the course through their web browser on a computer, smartphone, or tablet – no special software installation required.
Because every participant learns differently, each person controls their own pace. They can pause, reflect, revisit previous lessons, and continue exactly where they stopped. Progress is automatically saved, making learning convenient even for busy professionals.
Most participants complete their training within one week, although they have 30 days of access (extendable where necessary).
Designed for Better Learning
LearnSmart courses are carefully designed to maximize understanding, participation, and long-term retention – not simply content consumption.
Throughout each course, participants actively engage with practical questions, exercises, knowledge checks, and interactive learning activities that reinforce understanding as they progress.
Unlike traditional classroom sessions where learning must keep pace with the facilitator, LearnSmart allows every participant to spend more time on concepts they find challenging while moving quickly through familiar areas. This flexibility leads to deeper understanding, stronger retention, and greater confidence in applying new knowledge on the job.
For the best learning experience, we recommend completing the course in shorter learning sessions spread over several days rather than trying to finish everything in one sitting.
Learning Management & Participant Support
Learning does not end after enrollment.
Our team stays in touch with participants throughout their learning journey, providing reminders, encouragement, and support until they complete their course. This proactive approach contributes to our consistently high course completion rates.
Organizational Progress Reports
For organizations enrolling employees, we provide periodic training reports until all participants complete their courses.
Each report includes:
