Overview

The APICS Certified in Planning and Inventory Management (CPIM) program offers candidates a thorough body of knowledge, best practices, and standards to help them respond more effectively to supply disruptions, changes in demand, and supply chain risk.

CPIM meets the needs of both professionals and employers worldwide by enhancing your value to your company and preserving your and your company’s competitiveness in the current global economy.

Why should you earn CPIM?

Consumer demand saw a significant shift as a result of the epidemic, and supply chain weaknesses came to light. Planning is therefore more crucial than ever, and the CPIM program equips you with the knowledge and abilities to meet these difficulties.

The APICS CPIM credential shows that a company has mastered its internal processes and has a thorough understanding of materials management, master scheduling, forecasting, production planning, and how all of these concepts apply throughout the extended supply chain.
