Fritz-CILT Humanitarian Logistics Certification Programmes
Humanitarian Logisticians and Supply Chain Managers are called upon to provide responses in a variety of situations, sometimes planned for, but often happening without warning. In such situations, they must have the ability to quickly construct and operate a supply chain to bring relief to those in need.
Uniquely, the Fritz Institute/CILT Humanitarian Logistics and Supply Chain programmes are designed to certify the practitioners application of their skills in relevant humanitarian aid situations. LLA is proud to be the exclusive learning partner delivering these programmes for the humanitarian community.
Whilst other qualifications are not related to the humanitarian world, the Certification programmes have been designed by the sector for the sector.
Developed with funding from DFID, ECHO and USAID, these Programmes are recognised and supported by leading NGOs including ICRC, the International Rescue Committee, Medecins Sans Frontieres (MSF), Oxfam (GB), Save the Children (US), UNICEF, UNHCR, and WFP.
These Programmes test the competency of applying best practices in supply chain management, in combination with leading practices from the commercial sector and academia, in order to teach the essential planning and management skills required of humanitarian logistics managers.
The suite consists of the following three programmes below.
Certification in Humanitarian Logistics (English & French)
