CSCP

APICS Launches CSCP Certification

There will be three opportunities to take the APICS Certified Supply Chain Professional (CSCP) exam in 2006. Be the first in your organization to obtain the APICS CSCP credential. APICS is now accepting applications for the June 17 and December 2 testing dates. The pilot exam took place on March 11.  

To earn the CSCP designation, candidates must pass a single comprehensive exam. The exam consists of 175 multiple-choice questions and will be delivered via paper-and-pencil administrations in 2006. Before registering, candidates must submit an application to document eligibility to take the CSCP exam.  

To be eligible to test for the CSCP exam, a candidate must meet one of the following criteria: 

  • Bachelor’s degree or equivalent plus two years of related business experience,

  • CPIM, CFPIM, CIRM, or C.P.M. designation plus two years of related business experience,

  • Five years of related business experience.

    APICS will review all applications and notify applicants whether their applications are approved or denied. Once a candidate’s application is approved, they may register for the exam.  

    Preparing for the CSCP Exam 

    To prepare for the CSCP exam, the CSCP Learning System is your best resource. The learning system is a comprehensive course that covers the entire CSCP body of knowledge, and contains everything needed to prepare for the CSCP exam. It combines print materials with interactive online tools to deliver a customized learning experience.  

    The Fairfield County Chapter will be offering an Instructor led course for this certification exam at Bigelow Tea in Fairfield starting this September.  Please contact Mike Okrent at okrent3209@aol.com for further information.
