The American Purchasing Society's online purchasing and procurement courses are ideal for buyers, purchasing managers, and other people in purchasing who work full-time and have only a limited amount of time to spend on training and education. We offer a wide variety of management training seminars, inventory management courses, procurement management courses, supply chain training seminars, warehouse management courses and so much more.
The Society's purchasing and procurement training is designed to be user-friendly for all, and can be easily taken by people who have limited computer skills.
Our purchasing and procurement courses cover important subjects and information that all purchasing professionals should know. They focus on practical training to enhance skills, and students can take what they learn directly back to their jobs and immediately implement the lessons and techniques.
Most online purchasing and procurement courses will only take students 2 to 3 hours to complete and can be taken whenever is convenient to the student. There are no scheduled hours for access. Students are emailed instructions shortly after registration is completed.
Every student receives a certificate upon completion of their purchasing or procurement course.
Essential Law for Buyers and Sellers - The content provided a lot of information and good advice that helps meet the needs of purchasing professionals who need quick and reliable references. I really enjoyed the case studies and found the course very well organized and structured.
