Survey

The Platinum Medallion is awarded to APICS chapters that provide "exemplary member services and professional development opportunities to APICS members and customers" for more then 5 years in a row.
 

 

Education Schedule

Our chapter's 2010 educational offerings fall in three primary categories:

  1. Regular monthly Professional Development Meetings (PDM)
  2. Certification Workshops
  3. Special educational opportunities offered by the chapter or other affiliated organizations

Workshops are arranged by the Chapter, based upon surveys and feedback from the local membership.  They are intended to help in honing industry-related skills, aid in self-development, and enhance career opportunities.  By participating in Workshops, individuals are also preparing for APICS certifications such as Certified in Production and Inventory Management (CPIM) and Certified Supply Chain Professional (CSCP).  This material is best suited to people with either academic or on-the-job experience.  They are not introductory workshops and are intended for people with some background in Production and Inventory Control.

Refer to the Educational Program section below for details about class offerings, registration, and costs.

Note:  Some organizations with a formal partnership with the Richmond APICS Chapter may entitle their members for the APICS membership rate.  Please inquire if you think you may be entitled to this benefit.

Materials

Your registration includes a Participant workbook and sample test questions.  Other CPIM module study materials may be ordered directly from the National APICS bookstore.

 


Instructor Opportunities

In order to respond promptly to the needs of our members, we are looking for individuals with classroom training experience.  If you have already obtained your CPIM and/or CSCP credentials, and have had training and/or experience in providing classroom instruction, we need you.  If you have not taken a formal "Train the Trainer" course yet, we can arrange that opportunity.

Please contact the VP of Education for more information about teaching chapter workshops.  Your experience is worth $$, and will benefit your fellow APICS members and the Richmond/Tri-Cities community.
