Supply Chain, Logistics and Transportation Programs
CDL Training Program
Lake City Community College provides CDL/truck driving training
and certification and serves as host of the Employ Florida Banner
Center for Logistics & Distribution.
In just five weeks students can acquire the skills to work as a
professional truck driver. With the need for qualified truck drivers
at an all-time high, trucking companies are offering new employees
higher starting salaries and improved benefits packages.
As part of the CDL program, LCCC bought a state-of-the-art truck
driving simulator that now can be taken on the road thanks to an
additional U.S. Department of Labor grant. It is complete with
wraparound "windows" and "mirrors" and a full dashboard, simulating
real-world driving conditions in the safety of the classroom.
Supply Chain Management Programs
As host of the Employ Florida Banner Center for Logistics &
Distribution, the college will provide AS and AAS Degree program in
Supply Chain Management and an industry specific College Credit
Certificate program in Supply Chain Management starting fall semester 2008. A brochure can be downloaded by clicking here.
Goals
The mission of each
Employ Florida Banner Center involves creating, delivering, and
sustaining an industry-driven workforce development training center
capable of addressing the state’s workforce needs within a targeted
industry segment. This year we will provide training for 200
individuals through training programs with at least 150 of them
completing the training.
One of the primary goals of the Banner
Center is to be the source for logistics and distribution training
in the state of Florida by 2009. Pursuing this goal, quality
assurance is a key element to make training and education more
competitive and more attractive for our customers. To meet this
challenge, we are seeking logistics professionals who have the
knowledge, education, and background that will enable them to excel
as teaching professionals.
If you have a background in logistics and
distribution (supply chain) and related fields with current
knowledge in the fi eld and would like to share your experiences
with others, we would like to hear from you.
