Professional Programs

Our programs are structured based on:

Duration
Level of Intensity
Job Function

The program content goes through significant content changes each year in order to cater to the dynamic nature of various industries, lines of trade, and business cycles. We work closely with our industry partners and the Read Center research teams, Global Supply Chain Laboratory and Talent Incubator Program, to incorporate new bodies of knowledge (applied and proven best practices) to develop cutting edge and relevant content. Many attendees go through the same program multiple times to stay updated and educated on the continuously evolving best practices within Industrial Distribution.

Our teaching philosophy emphasizes three key aspects:

  • Be Unique in your industry (distinctive value proposition)
  • Gain competitive advantage (be ahead of your competition)
  • Be Relevant (maintaining sustainability and staying current).

To help you choose a program we categorize our programs as Short Courses (1-2 days in duration),
Intensive Programs (3-5 days) and Custom Programs (built specifically for your firm to meet specific training or process improvement needs).
