This two-day course seeks to equip participants with the knowledge and skills to implement climate positive change in their existing supply chains. In line with Singapore’s Green Plan to help organisations, especially small and medium-sized enterprises, to develop capabilities to embrace sustainability, the course will also introduce insights and tools to enable participants to build a resilient and sustainable supply chain.

The course will be concluded with a learning journey to Republic Polytechnic’s Supply Chain Innovation Lab.
