You are always welcome to contact us, should you have any questions.

No problem, we can issue invoice after receiving a Purchase Order.
-
I am Procurement Manager and would like the Program be integrated in the introduction program in my procurement department. Can we arrange a SLA and discounted price list?
Yes, of course. It is a very good idea to align the procurement language in-between all team members.
-
We have a trainee program for junior buyers. Can we run a team in the program instead of individual programs?
Yes. But we recommend groups up to 5 participants. Mainly because all mentor sessions are managed in e-meetings and it is hard to keep all participants involved when groups include higher count. When running groups we usually increase the meeting frequency to once a week.
-
What languages do you support?
All online courses are in English (with captions). We currently have mentors capable in running mentor sessions in English, Finnish, Spanish and Swedish.
Why should you attend the program
