This CSSCP programme is delivered in collaboration with ISCEA and B2G. Join a growing community of global executives, and benefit from the opportunity to validate your expertise in supply chain sustainability management.

The 3-day Certified Sustainable Supply Chain Professional Course (CSSCP) is a comprehensive supply chain education course designed for senior executives; the program integrates sustainability into all chapters within the course.

The topics will be supplemented with real industry examples of sustainable supply chain in practice.

The CSSCP programme is applicable to all global industries: transportation, agriculture, fashion, energy, etc. The CSSCP program will educate executives on ways to add sustainable practices to the existing supply chain or how to rebuild current supply chain with sustainability in mind.

The end goal of the CSSCP course is to educate all professionals on how to maximize success of supply chain in a way that protects the future of the planet and is sustainable in nature without sacrificing supply chain efficiency.
