Looking for a mentor with a background in supply chain logistics. I have a Masters in International Business and wish to become a Supply Chain Manager. I am looking to begin my career as a purchasing agent or supply chain analyst, but do not have any certifications. Does anyone know of any accredited certifications, besides PMI and Apics?
(PMI and Apics require x number of years of industry experience to enroll in the certification course)

Your statement is somewhat vague, so this is the best answer that I can give:
Definition:
the detailed coordination of a complex operation involving many people, facilities, or supplies

Or Simply put:
Using all available resources to get an item from point A to point B at the right time, right place, and in the right condition.
