JACKSONVILLE, Fla., July 23, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- SIG University, an online certification program focused on strategic sourcing, supply chain governance, and third-party risk management today announces that enrollment is open for courses beginning on September 30.
SIG University fills an educational training gap in today's sourcing, supply chain and risk management workforce. SIG University educates professionals who work at Fortune 500 and Global 1000 companies, with over 1,000 graduates from over 200 companies representing 17 countries. Upon graduation, SIG University students earn a credential as a Certified Sourcing Professional (CSP), Certified Third Party Risk Management Professional (C3PRMP) or a Certified Supply Management Professional (CSMP).
The CSP course is administered over a 12-week period, the C3PRMP course is an eight-week program and the CSMP is a more condensed program that takes five weeks to complete. Each of the three certifications is valid for five years and is delivered in a modular format with lessons, assessments and quizzes to test mastery of subject matter. In addition, SIG University students have access to one of the largest banks of available sourcing data in the U.S. through the SIG Resource Center, which houses over 5,000 tools, templates, methodologies, processes, whitepapers and archived presentations.
