JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (PRWEB) June 03, 2020
SIG University, a comprehensive online training and certification program focused on strategic sourcing, governance practices and methodologies, third-party risk management and digital transformation is now enrolling students for certification programs that begin on July 6.
The advanced training benefits sourcing professionals who want to certify their knowledge and secure job opportunities as well as teams by creating a common language that breaks down silos, improves efficiencies and overall performance. Each certification program is delivered entirely online, so students have the flexibility to balance work and home life with their studies.
SIG University faculty members are subject-matter experts and senior practitioners who bring first-hand experience with sourcing and risk events to life in the virtual classroom. A unique aspect of SIG University’s learning model are weekly discussion forums, where students and faculty discuss the week’s lessons and real-world applications. These discussions solidify learning outcomes and provide a professional network to engage with industry peers.
“As the world faces a recession, company executives need sourcing and procurement talent with specialized skills to automate supply chains, manage risk and source responsibly,” said SIG CEO and President Dawn Tiura. “Employers like USAA ask their interview candidates if they hold a SIG University certification because they know SIG University graduates are up-to-date on best practices when it comes to strategic sourcing, governance, third-party risk and digital transformation.”
An early enrollment discount is available until June 6. Closed cohorts are available for groups and discounts are available for companies enrolling teams. Visit the SIG University website for a complete listing of all certification programs and detailed curriculum guide.
