RCC To Offer Free Global Logistics Associate Certificate Beginning Nov. 9

Randolph Community College’s Workforce Development and Continuing Education Division is offering the American Production and Inventory Control Society (APICS) Global Logistics Associate certificate beginning Nov. 9.

The Global Logistics Associate (GLA) is an internationally recognized certification program provided by the American Production and Inventory Control Society (APICS) that recognizes the completion of coursework in logistics and supply chain for entry-level positions, said Bryle Hatch, director of workforce development at RCC. “This program focuses on the general knowledge of transportation and logistics and all associated functions necessary for the delivery of goods,” he said. Workplace skills, warehouse operations, safety compliance, and information technology are examined in class time. Students will also earn their OSHA-10 and First-Aid/CPR credentials.

Day and evening cohorts will be offered. Classes will meet face-to-face, with online components for quizzes, homework, and materials. The day schedule will be 8 a.m.-12 noon, Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, Nov. 9 – Dec. 18. The evening class will meet 6-9 p.m., Tuesdays and Thursdays, Nov. 10 – Jan. 28. Both cohorts must take the OSHA and First-Aid/CPR components on Saturdays, 8:30-5 p.m., on Nov. 21 and Dec. 5. Classes will be held in the Continuing Education and Industrial Center on the Asheboro Campus.

Hatch said that the class will be offered for free thanks to scholarships from the Triad Workforce Solutions Collaborative. Class booklets and materials are also provided.
