Overview
In Supplier Management, you will learn how to select and evaluate suppliers, implement appropriate contracts, and how to mitigate risks. In the Global Procurement and Sourcing Specialization offered by Coursera in partnership with Rutgers the State University of New Jersey, you will learn and understand various tools and techniques to evaluate supply markets.
Lastly, the course will cover the very important topic of negotiation. Outside reading will be provided to reinforce your knowledge. In addition, case studies will be used to bring these learning to life, and assessment will be used to test your overall knowledge.
Applied Learning Project
- In addition to the videos, readings, and podcast, learners will use their learned knowledge and newly acquired skills to solve/answer questions for "real" life cases. These cases are required and will be assessed by a Peer group.
- The last case in the Negotiation course, the student has an additional option to answer not only as a buyer but as a seller. That will bring more of a "real" life negotiation.
