ASCM Twin Cities Chapter

The Twin Cities Chapter of ASCM (formerly APICS) is where it all began for me.  A Supply Chain Management education organization providing workshops and certification review courses for the APICS certification programs (CPIM, CSCP, CLTD).  I became an APICS instructor and have been on the Board of Directors for the chapter for several years now.

We are a multidisciplinary team of knowledge-loving, highly experienced people in complex operations environments, and we are passionate about helping our clients improve their supply chains’ performance through innovative and creative software solutions and methodologies to generate value for our clients.
"John is a great instructor with a solid business background so he does a great job connecting the material with real life scenarios. I have taken the Demand Driven Planner Professional with him and passed the test in my first try (not an easy test at all!! one of the most difficult I've taken and I have a degree in Supply Chain). John was there to break down content even after the course ended and made the process clear and efficient to become certified. As I continued my Demand Driven education online for the Demand Driven Leader Certification, I was able to tap John for guidance and clarity when the course material was not sufficient to expand on concepts. John is a fantastic resource and I highly recommend him to anyone early on their Demand Driven Journey!"
