APICS Kansas City Newsletter December, 2008:

Greater KC APICS CPIM Classes Being Offered in 2009!

In the face of a tougher economy, it is important to be a person who provides great value to the company and their bottom line.  Taking local, instructor-led CPIM or CSCP classes is a great way to expand your own marketable skills and also meet other industry professionals.  In-person classes allow for great information sharing between actual companies and how each one handles the same business challenges we all face.  Live instructors can provide immediate feedback to questions about the material instead of sending an email out into cyberspace or just posting to a message board.

If you are a member of management in your company, this is a great opportunity to strengthen your existing workforce through training.  CPIM and CSCP classes provide knowledge and insights that have immediate, relevant, real-world applications within your environment. 

Appropriate that money now in your 2009 training budget for APICS CPIM and CSCP certification classes!
