FE Report | Tuesday, 15 July 2008
A two-day 'training of trainers (TOT)' workshop on 'International Purchasing and Supply Chain Management (IPSCM)' was organised by the DCCI Business Institute (DBI).
The objective of the workshop was to increase the number of skilled trainers for expanding training services on IPSCM at the DBI.
To meet the growing demand for skill development of the business community, particularly SMEs, the Chamber established DCCI Business Institute (DBI) in 1999.
The objective of DBI is to upgrade the skill of entrepreneurs and business executives by imparting various modern and need-based training courses so that they can convert the challenges of free economy into opportunities.
Considering the need for competitiveness in the global market, DBI has been conducting the IPSCM courses since 2004. Initially there were short term courses and later medium and long term diploma courses were introduced from 2007.
In Bangladesh, DBI is the only authorised examination body (AEB) of International Trade Centre (ITC)-WTO/UNCTAD Geneva. It has been holding examinations on IPSCM in March and September every year regularly.
