Combining theory, best practices, and real-world scenarios, the course equips professionals with strategic sourcing skills, contract negotiation techniques, supplier management frameworks, and risk mitigation strategies—all grounded in ethical and sustainable procurement principles.
Whether you're aiming to enhance procurement performance, lead transformation initiatives, or pass the CPP exam, this course provides the practical tools and strategic mindset needed to excel in today’s procurement function and beyond.
