What our graduates say

I am glad to be a part of the APICS family. This certification for sure upgraded my skill set so now I can be more effective and perform my job much better.

This course was a great starting point for my professional knowledge and my career. I can highly recommend this training to everybody in the field.

I would recommend APICS training to all supply chain managers who are interested in making an impact and who want to improve their understanding of the supply chain. We found Rob and Ana to be excellent at delivering the APICS message and keeping the students engaged.

I joined the CPIM II remote individual courses with SUPPLY CHAIN EDUCATION s.r.o. and the overall experience was awesome. The service enables you to accommodate the studying slots in your busy working schedule and is flexible to change.
The instructor, Rob, is very nice, experienced and is always there to support you that you are well prepared for the exam. The convenience and effectivity of this course is just unchallenged.

Recommended to everyone who seeks to pass the the CPIM exam!

I had a pleasure of taking a CSCP training in a study group guided by Rob van Stratum in the summer of 2014. Rob has a great skill of presenting complex concepts in an understandable and easily memorable form, as well as put them in a relevant practical business context.

The notes made during these sessions gave me leads to deepening the knowledge in particular areas. And when I had a need to clarify some topics, Rob has been exceptionally responsive and provided additional comments to my questions even at a much later time after the courses. I appreciate a lot Rob's willingness to support his students and lead them to a successful passing of the challenging CSCP exam.

I participated in the class sessions held in Basel in order to prepare for the CSCP exam with Rob. I remember Rob as a very kind and knowledgeable person. The class was very interactive and he provided a great summary of the key topics with realexamples. Thanks to this approach, my learning curve went up faster and I could be well prepared for the restof the studies.

Supply Chain Education helped me really a lot with proper certification program, finally we decided for CSCP and I don’t regret at all. Whenever I have any question, it was really easy to reach them and get proper answer very soon, even no issue with online connection after 8 PM.

Rob is very experienced and professional lector, very passionate about logistics and supply chains. His stories from real life helped me a lot to understand the themes and remember them after the lessons.

Due to the covid situation we had 10 lessons in Zoom platform on weekly basis from 9:00 to 12:30, it was very convenient. It was first time to have such a difficult topics in English for me, before the first lesson I was little bit scared about the internet connection and if I will keep the pace with the group and with Rob as a Dutch lector, but it wasn’t issue at all.

I believe all of this lead to my successful exam, although it took lot of selfstudy hours as well.
