Welcome to 2021 - an exciting year with ASCI as it remains steadfast on its mission is to become the trusted Professional Accreditation Body for Supply Chain Management in Australia. In 2021, ASCI is focussed on providing:

1.    Career pathways

The ASCI Provisional Eligibility Assessment For Registration (Associate or Practitioner) provides a pathway into supply chain management stream/s including procurement, operations, logistics, integrated logistics support. By 2025, all streams will lead to Professional Supply Chain Manager (PrSCM).
