CPSM Certification

NORTH SMITHFIELD, RI – ISM of Greater RI, an affiliate of ISM is currently holding registration for three 28 hour “Body of Knowledge” workshops in preparation for each exam, starting on January 13, 2015.  These sessions will be held for two hours on Tuesday and Thursday evenings for five consecutive weeks with a full day review session on the Saturday of the sixth week.  We will then take a two week break to allow the participants to take the exam in accordance with their own schedule.  We will then begin the sessions for Exam 2 using the same format, followed by the sessions for Exam 3. Dates will be forthcoming once identified.

So challenge yourself and make the move to gain supply management’s most prestigious designation. ISM launched the CPSM™ program in May 2008.  The CPSM™ is the credential that surpasses the demands of the international marketplace with multi-faceted skills in areas such as finance, supplier relationship management, organizational global strategy and risk compliance.
