Recognition of Achievement

The IoSCM recognises that professionals in the supply chain industry may have gained extensive skills and expertise through work based experience and training during their career to date and want to gain recognition of their competence based on a combination of experience and achievements combined.

The Recognition of Achievement (ROA) programme enables professionals to gain an IoSCM accredited certificate stating that the Institute recognises their skills, experience and expertise in areas of supply chain management. This recognition is gained by providing the Institute appropriate evidence to demonstrate knowledge and experience. This can take the form of qualifications or training courses completed and employer endorsements.

1. Choose your current position and the highest qualification level you hold to generate a suggested ROA level for completion

2. Select the areas of supply chain management for which you are able to submit evidence and want to gain recognition.

3. Once payment has been received, you will receive details to submit your evidence. This will be assessed and certificate issued upon approval.

4. Review the criteria for each area and select at least three areas that you are able to demonstrate competence through evidential submissions.
