Whether you're a purchasing or supply management professional seeking to validate the skills and knowledge acquired through years of practical experience, or a relative newcomer to the field looking to strengthen your resume, the C.P.M. certification from the Institute for Supply Management (ISM) provides you with the means to do so. The Purchasing and Supply Manager's Guide to the C.P.M.

  • Supply Environment. Negotiations, information technology, quality issues, internal relationships, and external relationships.
  • Value Enhancement Strategies. Sourcing analysis, supply and inventory management, value enhancing methods, forecasting and strategies.
  • Management. Management and organization, and human resource management.
