Class overview
During your course of study in this program, you will learn about the various career opportunities in the Global Business and Logistics fields. We will be using material handling equipment that is normally found in a warehouse setting, as well as completing project-based learning modules that will inform you about the life of a logistics planner/manager for a major company. We also take several field trips during the school year that will further your knowledge about our growing field and open the door for potential career opportunities after high school!

Supply Chain Management
Supply chain management is the execution process of any business. Students will learn about the coordination of a network of otherwise independent trading partners creating a desired product or service, and moving it from suppliers, through manufacturing, and out to customers when and where they want it. This career path focuses on all supply chain functional areas and a variety of the latest supply chain strategies and technologies.
