The American Purchasing Society’s online purchasing and procurement courses are ideal for buyers, purchasing managers, and other people in purchasing who work full-time and have only a limited amount of time to spend on training and education. We offer a wide variety of management training seminars, inventory management courses, procurement management courses, supply chain training seminars, warehouse management courses and so much more.
Most online purchasing and procurement courses will only take students 2 to 3 hours to complete and can be taken whenever is convenient to the student. There are no scheduled hours for access. Students are emailed instructions shortly after registration for a procurement training program is completed.
Every student receives a certificate upon completion of their purchasing or procurement course.
Members save on every course in our catalog — the Member Price shown on each course below is what you’ll pay once you join, and new and renewing members get one course free every member year. Log in for member pricing or become a member.
