Online Education and Training Compendium Improved With Expanded Listings, Enhanced Searchability
August 18, 2010, Mississauga, Ontario – The Canadian Supply Chain Sector Council’s online compendium of supply chain-related offerings has recently been broadened to include material-handling courses and programs. These listings are an addition to the supply chain educational offerings already presented in the compendium.
The Council’s compendium, accessible at www.supplychaincanada.org/en/compendium, provides information to help people locate education and training providers across Canada that offer programming to suit their needs. Listings can be searched based on geographic, language and program-length preferences. They provide details such as pre-requisites and credentials earned, and include contact information and website links. The post-secondary institutions, training providers and associations whose offerings comprise the compendium maintain their own listings, which ensures their accuracy. Providers will be contacted annually to review their listings and update them as required.
With approximately 400 listings from 150 organizations, the compendium is a valuable tool for career planning. The compendium is useful for individuals interested in increasing their skills and knowledge and for HR professionals responsible for corporate education-and-training planning. Its user-friendly searchability and detailed content allow for easy comparison of supply chain offerings provided locally and across Canada.
The Canadian Supply Chain Sector Council is an all-stakeholder, not-for-profit organization responsible for the human resources strategy for the supply chain sector in Canada. The CSCSC is funded by the Government of Canada’s Sector Council Program.
