New Credential to Train Retail Employees on Supply Chains: NRF

A new warehouse, inventory and logistics credential for retail employee skills training in supply chains was launched by the NRF Foundation and the Association for Supply Chain Management Foundation, said the National Retail Federation Monday. E-commerce and supply chains “are increasingly essential to our economy,” said NRF CEO Matthew Shay. The new credential “will give job seekers and employees the training they need to navigate the complex supply chain challenges retailers currently face.” The credential will target current and future potential employees interested in supply chains or working in warehouses, distribution or fulfillment centers, NRF said: “The educational program highlights the increasing importance of warehouse, distribution and similar facilities and their workers to both the retail industry and the U.S. economy.”
