Graduate diploma based on CITT courses

Toronto, Ontario—Emerging leaders in private trucking now have a fast track to sharpening their industry skills and knowledge. The Private Motor Truck Council (PMTC) has just unveiled the PMTC Logistics Management Graduate Program, compriseing select courses from the CITT Program of Study.

The program consists of four specific CITT courses, chosen for their relevance to PMTC member company employees.

PMTC President Mike Millian said that after a lengthy review of education providers, “CITT was chosen for the course content for our new PMTC Logistics Management Graduate Program, as they are recognized and respected as the leader in logistics management training. And, after professionals gain their diploma from our new program, they can also continue directly with CITT, using their credits towards earning the invaluable CCLP (CITT-Certified Logistics Professional) designation.”

CITT President Catherine Viglas added “Succession planning—for leadership roles in particular—is a critical issue for all types of supply chain logistics companies, including private fleet operators. CITT is thrilled to support the Private Motor Truck Council in helping their member organizations prepare the next generation for leadership roles.”

The CITT courses that comprise the PMTC Logistics Management Certification Diploma are Transportation Systems, Logistics Processes, Logistics Decision Modelling and Business Approach to Writing.

Viglas noted “Young professionals who complete the PMTC Logistics Management Graduate Program and want to continue their industry education might need to take as few as two more of CITT’s specialized logistics courses in order to earn their CCLP designation.”

To make PMTC’s diploma program more accessible, a Young Leaders Education Bursary Award is also available to two candidates a year, covering the cost of two of the four courses.
