Procurement and Sourcing Training Services
Corcentric’s Procurement, Supply Chain, and Sourcing training experts know the skills and capabilities that teams must have – because we’ve worked in the field and have the experience ourselves.
Knowledge is power – but putting that power into practice is easier said than done. Whether you are an executive or procurement professional, Corcentric can provide you with the knowledge and necessary tools to successfully strengthen your supply chain, reduce costs, and ensure your competitive edge. Fully customizable to your organization’s size, maturity, and budget, our training programs help you progress through gaining knowledge, to building capabilities, to improving skills, and finally, to growing ideas.
Managers struggle to balance the time commitments of training against the daily demands of the organization. Similarly, when it comes to budget planning, training may not be as high of a priority as hiring a new team member or replacing legacy technology. Corcentric understands the need to find a balance between training your team and delivering results. We create custom training programs based on your requirements to help build a world-class team and improve the ROI for your department through:
- Targeted training, specific to your organization’s specific needs, processes, and unique requirements
- Customized materials focused on your industry
- Team-building components to improve the department’s interactions
- Cross-functions courses to build the teams’ skills holistically
- Courses for other departments to educate the organization and improve engagement
We’ll assess your procurement, supply chain, and sourcing goals and objectives and build a training program that addresses the specific issues your organization faces. Working closely with procurement leaders and your HR department, we’ll create a program that will be effective through both the content and delivery model.
Regardless of the format, you’ll receive the expert guidance of experienced procurement, supply chain, and sourcing professionals through training that puts you on the path to reaching your organizational goals and objectives.
