Program
What are Students saying
about APICS Education in Colorado?
“Attending the 5 day CSCP course conducted by Colorado
APICS is highly recommended for anyone preparing to take the APICS CSCP
exam. Their knowledge and work related experience in the Global Supply Chain
industry was a great help in teaching the concepts in a fun and enjoyable learning
setting. There is so much information to study, without this class it would be an
overwhelming task to complete on an independent level.” Stephen Robles C.P.M,
CPIM, CSCP, Director of Materials & Warehouse Operations, Hunter
Douglas
”I recently was able to complete my CPIM certification and the
education classes were instrumental in my success. I took the first test without class
and had to study 3 times more than I needed on any of the other courses. The
interaction during the classes with the instructor and other students help me
remember items better and have a good sense of how things happen in the real
world and not just in the text books. The instructors that I had were very
knowledgeable and able to answer any questions. The instructors were also very
receptive to helping outside of class. I don't think I would have been able to
complete the entire certification in 5 months without the classes and help from the
instructors.” Michael Atwell , CPIM, Manager of Business Operations, Arrow
Electronics

The CSCP Learning System is a comprehensive professional development
program that will help candidates prepare for the CSCP examination. The

I recently obtained the APICS CSCP certification which has equipped

management. The Instructor-led APICS Learning System offered by Colorado
Chapter 81 helped prepare me for the exam b y providing a platform to acquire,
discuss and solidify ke y principles and terminology for current day business
operations. I highly recommend this class-type setting, as you will learn as much
from the dedicated instructors as from your fellowindustry-wide classmates.

This year we will again be offering a chance to sign up for the
CPIM certification courses at one time and be assured the classes
would not be cancelled.
courses offered by my local APICS (Chapter 81) organization. The detailed review of their
materials allowed me to pass each exam at the first attempt. Class discussion and the real life
examples of the concepts helped my understanding enormously. I subsequently took the
CSCP classes and just passed that exam last week. The bi-weekly classes were key to my
success. I feel well prepared to handle the challenges of the fast paced Supply Chain
environment!” Caren King, MBB, CSCP, CPIM, Program Manager, Supply Chain Operations,

“APICS has been offering classes at WhiteWave’s headquarters, which has
been truly beneficial for our company. We recently completed the five CPIM courses, and
had people from all areas of the supply chain enrolled. In a fast-paced, evolving field like
Operations and Supply Chain, it’s important to stay informed with new practices and ideas. APICS
allows busy professionals to gain important knowledge and skills while only committing a couple
hours a week at class. It’s all possible because of the dedicated instructors that make learning
easy with their passion to teach and real- world expertise.” Ben Osenbaugh, Fluid Transportation
Logistics Specialist, WhiteWave Foods Company
“After recently obtaining my CPIM certification through the completion of
all the APICS requirements, I can honestly say it has greatly broadened my
understanding and capacity to function at not only the tactical level, but also the
strategic level within the Supply Chain Management organization. The information and
insight provided by the APICS instructors through the learning material is truly
invaluable in today’s complex, global realm of business.” - Brett Horacek, CPIM,
CSCP, Supply Chain Management, Hospira, Inc.
“Throughout my career I have learned anything you can do to set
yourself apart from the competition is a great advantage which is why I initially took
the APICS classes to pass the CPIM certification tests. By the end of the classes I
realized that there were so many other areas of supply chain that I learned about and I
am grateful for my expanded knowledge that I can apply in my work. Since getting my
CPIM certification I have since been approached about a great promotion that will help
take me to the next level in my career.” Heather Kniker, CPIM, AT&T Supply Chain
Manager
