Supply Chain Executive Education

The University of North Florida flagship program for Transportation and Logistics and the UNF Division of Continuing Education recently announced the creation of the Center for Logistics and Supply Chain Executive Education. The purpose of the Center will be to offer quality continuing education for those engaged in the logistics and supply chain fields.

The programs will be conducted by UNF Transportation and Logistics faculty as well as expert practitioners or experts in relevant fields. The major focus will be on practitioners at the director level and above; however, several programs will be available for entry level and first line supervisory employees.
The Executive Program series includes the following courses:
• Leadership and Finance Courses
• High Potential Leadership Program for Logistics and Supply Chain Executives
• Strengthening Leadership Skills for High Potential Managers

This program is designed for leaders of logistics and supply chain organizations who are assuming the cross-functional responsibilities of organizational leadership. The program presents an integrated view of the fundamentals of management. Leveraging advanced strategies and techniques, participants learn how to excel in decision making and execution.
 
Designed for individuals who have approximately 10 years of experience, either as a manager or functional specialist and who have either recently been promoted to divisional responsibility or who have excellent prospects for leadership within their organization.

This intensive, five-day program seeks to accelerate the development of high potential managers and prepare them for senior leadership positions in logistics and supply chain fields. Class discussion, small team projects and exercises, case studies and simulations are key components.

The program will entail a highly interactive process of exchanging ideas, concepts and best practices with instructors and with peers from a variety of other companies and organizations.

Participants will leave the program with a “tool box” of strategic tools and tactical implements to help them apply their learning back on the job. They will learn to develop insights and entrepreneurial skills to evaluate, develop and manage new business opportunities to enable their organization to achieve profitable growth and enhance shareholder value.
