Read what our participants have learnt from this course …
My job requires me to handle daily manpower, physical stocks, fulfil requirements and meeting datelines. So after a few months into my current job, I found that there are actually many things to learn but I do not have knowledge on this and on-the-job learning is not enough .I feel that I have to equip myself with basic knowledge in logistics and supply chain. This is where I start to search and found logistics program at TLA and my learning journey began from there.
At TLA, the module coverage is quite wide and the lecturers will not teach you purely from books but they will also share with you their knowledge and work experiences. There are also class interactions which make the classes livelier and not boring. During study assignment, our classmates will meet up to brainstorm for class projects. I feel grateful to meet experienced lecturers and helpful classmates, giving me more encouragement to pursue my study.
