"A lot of training programs promise the world, but few deliver. I've found one that does, and I can say this with confidence because I've taken multiple supply chain courses myself.
RDA Healthcare's Supply Chain Academy is the real deal. It’s the kind of resource I’m happy to recommend to the leaders in our Council of Supply Chain Executives (CSCE) group. If you need training that delivers practical skills, not just theory, check it out."
Hays Waldrop,
Founder of IHES, CPES, CSCE
“RDA’s Supply Chain Academy is a great solution for any organization! The courses translate healthcare supply chain best practices into practical day-to-day application – across all levels. The training was beneficial to my nurses and supply chain staff – for those new to healthcare supply chain as well as my experienced resources.
As someone who has spent more than 20 years in supply chain and developing teams, there was immediate value of having my entire team take the training to support a standardized and proactive approach in the respective supply chain functions.”
