2018 HHSCM CohortAre you a professional working in Supply Chain or Operations for an NGO, private industry, foundation, or government entity seeking to positively impact the organization and the constituents you serve?
Although the 2020 Health and Humanitarian Supply Chain Management Program, set to take place in May, was postponed due to COVID-19, now more than ever the communities and organizations we serve rely on our expertise and innovation to strengthen our supply chain systems and designs for better delivery of healthcare and pharmaceutical operations, as well as preparedness for, response to, and recovery from disasters and emergencies. That is why we have transitioned our 2020 Program to a online format.
The online HHSCM Program will take place July 13th- July 30th through a Georgia tech video conferencing system.
Classes will be taught by LIVE video instruction similar to the experience you would receive in person with the same interactive components. Each course will run for 1 week Monday through Thursday from 9:30am to 1:00pm EST each day.
2020 Course Schedule:
• Responsive Supply Chain Design and Operations July 13-16
• Inventory Management and Resource Allocation in Supply Chains July 20-23
• Systems Operations and Strategic Interactions in Supply Chains -July 27-30
In addition to receiving this program at a more subtle pace from wherever you are, the 2020 Virtual Program, will also be offered at a reduced cost of $4,200 (originally $6,000). Courses taken individually (not the full 3 course program) will be $1800 each rather than the original fee of $2400. This is a major savings for continuing your professional education with Georgia Tech and we invite you to take advantage by joining us this June!
