First developed in 2006, the Certificate operates at Level 3 (A level/post-18 school/college leaver standard). It was revised in 2012 to take account of the changing profile of the global transport and logistics sector.
Students studying our qualifications will automatically gain access to the International Knowledge Centre – giving access to an extensive range of best practice and learning material.
The course is designed to support professionals moving into, or who are already within supervisory or team leader roles but require training and development.
