Procurement and Sourcing Training Services

Corcentric’s Procurement, Supply Chain, and Sourcing training experts know the skills and capabilities that procurement, supply chain, and sourcing resources must have – because we’ve worked in the field and done the work ourselves.

Knowledge is power – but putting that power into practice is easier said than done. Whether you are an executive, procurement professional, or any individual concerned with reducing spend and strengthening your supply chain, Corcentric can provide you with the knowledge and necessary tools to successfully reduce costs and ensure your competitive edge. Fully customizable to your organization’s size, maturity, and budget, our training programs help you progress through gaining knowledge, to building capabilities, to improving skills, and finally, to growing ideas.

Managers struggle to balance the time commitments of training against the daily demands of the organization. Similarly, when it comes to budget planning, training may not be as high of a priority as hiring a new team member or replacing legacy technology. Corcentric understands the need to find a balance between training your team and delivering results; therefore, we create custom training programs that works around your requirements. The goal of our training programs is to help build a world-class team and improve the ROI for your department through:

• Targeted training, specific to your organization’s specific needs, processes, and unique requirements
• Customized materials focused on your industry
• Team-building components to improve the department’s interactions
• Cross-functions courses to build the teams’ skills holistically
• Courses for other departments to educate the organization and improve engagement

We’ll assess your procurement, supply chain, and sourcing goals and objectives and build a program that addresses the specific issues your organization faces. We work closely with the procurement leaders, as well as your HR department, to create a program that will be effective for your team, both through the content and the delivery model. Regardless of the format your training program takes, you’ll receive the expert guidance of experienced, procurement, supply chain, and sourcing professionals. Just as Corcentric’s procurement, supply chain, and sourcing solutions deliver tangible return on investment, so too will our training offerings put you on the path to reaching your organizational goals and objectives.
