Course Objectives
1.
To understand the basic concepts and vocabulary at an
introductory or building block level that is fundamental to the
APICS “Body Of Knowledge”. The “Planning Hierarchy” will be
introduced, which through this course and others hopefully to
follow, will allow one to effectively evaluate and apply those
principles integral to Materials Management and/or Supply Chain
Management in the broadest sense of the terms.
2.
To serve as a part of the preparation process for
individuals desiring to pursue the APICS Certification in
Production and Inventory Management (CPIM), with the Basics of
Supply Chain Management being the first segment in the national
examination progression.
3.
Both to encourage students to share the best and the less
effective practices from their current work environment as it
relates to the course content, and to provide a resource network
to discuss and to explore pragmatic and results orientated
approaches to the real life materials or production/inventory
control issues one might face daily.

"CIMdata views Mastercam® as the de facto industry standard
PC-based CAM software product. It is a well-known, competitively
priced, general-purpose software that provides a broad base of
modeling and NC software capability. It is appropriate for most
machining environments, from production machining operations
within manufacturing firms to machining relatively complex
surfaces within mold shops. It is particularly well suited to
job shops that have a wide range of machining requirements".
