The certification “Buying for Performance” for professional buyers prepares participants to play an active role in the definition and implementation of the company’s business and procurement strategy.
Therefore, it aims at understanding the process, essential tools, and practices contributing to enhancing the performance of the business.
The programme focuses on cross-functional and cross-cultural environments which require specific interpersonal skills in six essential topics: procurement fundamentals (inside & outside), contracts, costs, finance, and negotiation.
