The Supply Chain Management Certificate Program (SCM) is an organizationally funded program that targets individuals within the acquisition or logistics career fields working at depots, labs, acquisition centers or program offices, or headquarters.
Qualified applicants admitted into the program will normally be funded for their tuition by a federal agency ("unit funded"). Academic qualification requirements aside, applicants who are not unit funded will be admitted by exception, on a case-by-case basis only. In short, entry into the SCM program requires both academic acceptance into the program and agreement on the organizational funding mechanism. The program starts each Winter quarter in agreement with the AFIT Academic Calendar. For more Admissions information: Admissions-Certificate Eligibility
