How you’d get this certificate
- Zavmo teaches you. You learn the units one-to-one with an AI tutor, on your own work.
- You register with an approved centre. That is a college, training provider or employer The Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport in the UK has approved to offer this qualification. Zavmo is not an approved centre, so you register with them, not with us.
- The centre assesses, and The Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport in the UK awards. A qualified assessor at the centre judges your evidence, and the certificate comes from The Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport in the UK.
The CILT(UK) Level 3 Practitioner Certificate in Logistics, Supply Chain and Operations Management (VRQ) is a vocationally-related qualification. It focuses on cross-functional interconnectivity, logistics and supply chain operations, business operations, and production operations management. Learners will analyse the impact of inventory management and logistics operations on supply chain effectiveness.
These are the units The Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport in the UK registers against this qualification. It is a catalogue, not a syllabus. Which of them you take depends on the combination the qualification requires, and that is set by the awarding body rather than by us. Every unit here is regulated. Zavmo teaches towards them on your own work, and work done here is recognised as prior learning under the agreements we hold.
Zavmo is not an awarding body, is not an approved centre, and is not affiliated with The Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport in the UK. It does the teaching and the mapping. The Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport in the UK sets this qualification and awards it, and a qualified human assessor makes the assessment decision.
