Program overview
A one year graduate certificate in logistics and supply chain, covering procurement, transportation and distribution, inventory management, global sourcing and supply chain analytics.
Postgraduate Certificate in Logistics and Supply Chain Management (1 Year) is the shorter twin of the twenty four month certificate in the same subject, at the same annual fee, so the total cost differs sharply.
Postgraduate Certificate in Logistics and Supply Chain Management (1 Year) is taught at the Trent University Durham Greater Toronto Area campus in Oshawa, Ontario. Trent is a public university, which matters here: at a PUBLIC institution the Canadian field of study requirement applies only to non degree credentials, and Postgraduate Certificate in Logistics and Supply Chain Management (1 Year) is a graduate certificate rather than a degree. Post-Graduation Work Permit eligibility for Postgraduate Certificate in Logistics and Supply Chain Management (1 Year) therefore depends on the programme sitting in an eligible field when you apply, and that list is revised. Confirm it in writing before you pay a deposit. The study permit application for Postgraduate Certificate in Logistics and Supply Chain Management (1 Year) also requires an Ontario attestation letter.

Admission requirements
Who can apply (guide for international students):
- Education: A completed three year bachelor degree from a recognised university. Trent accepts a three year Indian bachelor for its graduate certificates, which many Canadian institutions do not.
- English (meet any one): IELTS Academic 6.5 overall with no band below 6.0; TOEFL iBT 86 overall with at least 20 in EVERY section, which is stricter than the undergraduate requirement; PTE Academic 59; or the Duolingo English Test at 115.
- Application and deposit: An application fee of CAD 92.25 applies. Confirm the tuition deposit and its refundability in writing before any money is transferred.
- Scholarship: No scholarship is recorded against this programme. Budget the full tuition.
- Work permit: Postgraduate Certificate in Logistics and Supply Chain Management (1 Year) is a graduate certificate rather than a degree, so the Canadian field of study test applies and Post-Graduation Work Permit eligibility must be confirmed in writing for your intake before you commit. No spousal open work permit arises, because that needs a master programme of 16 months or longer. An Ontario attestation letter is required with the study permit application.
- Study permit: Apply Study Visa handles the Ontario attestation letter, the study permit application and the biometrics appointment with you.
