SCOR® PROFESSIONAL ENDORSEMENT

SCOR® PROFESSIONAL
ENDORSEMENT
The SCOR® Professional (SCOR-P) endorsement establishes
a global standard of excellence for applying SCOR.
Supply Chain Management Competence
The Supply Chain Operations Reference (SCOR) model is widely
recognized as the global standard for supply chain management.
The SCOR model enables users to address, improve and
communicate supply chain management practices.
APICS SCOR Professional (SCOR-P) endorsement demonstrates
an individual’s knowledge of SCOR and the ability to apply
the model’s techniques to measure, manage and improve supply
chain performance. The SCOR-P endorsement indicates that
an individual possesses sought-after supply chain management
knowledge and skills.
For organizations, the SCOR-P endorsement provides a practical
method for assessing the skills and competencies of supply
chain professionals. It also establishes benchmarks for evaluating
the effectiveness of SCOR training. Building an in-house pool of
endorsed SCOR Professionals can help a company, government
agency, or nonprofit organization apply the SCOR model to
accelerate supply chain transformation and dramatically increase
business performance.
APICS offers a clear path to earn the SCOR-P endorsement.
Prepare for the Exam – APICS recommends that SCOR-P
candidates attend a three-day SCOR-P training course and study
the materials contained within the SCOR Professional Training
Participant Workbook. The schedule of public training sessions
is posted on the APICS website at apics.org/publictraining.
Schedule the Exam – Completion of a SCOR-P training course
is recommended but not required prior to taking the SCOR–P
exam. However, candidates must purchase the SCOR Professional
training course to receive an exam voucher. Candidates are also
provided with information on how to contact the testing agency
to schedule the exam.
Take the Exam – Exams are administered via computer-based
testing and offered through a network of test centers. There are
60 questions and 50 questions are scored. Candidates will have
two hours to complete the exam.
Receive Exam Results – Candidates receive their results
immediately upon completion of the exam. In addition, candidates
receive results via email within one business day following
exam completion. Results are confidential. Those who pass the
exam receive a “PASS” notice and instructions for downloading
their SCOR-P endorsement certificate.
Verification that an individual holds the SCOR-P endorsement is
available online at apics.org/verification.
