Procurement essentials - Good Overview
GOOD
good
perfect course for a beginner in procurement field
The session was very insightful.
It was enlightening
Excellent and useful knowledge.
Wonderful and helpful course
Awesome learning experience
A clear, up-to-date primer that distinguishes purchasing from procurement, frames the CIPS cycle as a continuous process, and emphasizes 5 Rights, SRM, and the shift from savings to value. To strengthen impact, I’d add more templates and numeric case studies-otherwise, it’s an excellent entry point for onboarding teams and aligning leaders.
