I am working on the LINCS grant to try to get folks who are out of work back to work in the supply chain industry. There are twelve colleges in the consortium, nine of whom are teaching up to eight key processes within supply chain. Upon completion of a class the student will receive a certification from the college and CSCMP. The next step is to work with key employers in the vicinity of each college to find employment for the students. The lead college in the consortium is Broward College in Ft. Lauderdale, FL. The key processes being taught are as follows:Supply Chain ManagmentDemand PlanningTransportation ManagementWarehousing ManagementProcurement and Supply ManagementOrder Fulfillment and Customer ServiceManufacturing and Service OperationsInventory ManagementThe schools involved in the consortium are as follows:Broward College, Ft.

I worked in a variety of supply chain positions during my 35 years at Welch Foods. I started in 1978 as Distribution Planning Manager, and got promoted to Director of Distribution in 1980. In 1986, I was promoted to be the Director of Logistics with responsibility for transportation, warehousing, customer service and procurement. in 1992, I got promoted and added the cash-to-cash cycle to the logistics group. In 2001, I moved to the Sales Organization and took over a new group called Customer Logistics. This group worked with our key accounts to improve the joint supply chain. In 2009, Customer Logistics was moved back to the Supply Chain.

Planned the movement of goods to the various distribution warehouses and did various analyses to improve the supply chain.
