Program overview
A one year graduate professional certificate in supply chain, covering procurement, logistics and transportation, inventory strategy, global sourcing, supply chain analytics and applied project work.
Graduate Professional Certificate - Supply Chain Management carries no application fee at all, unlike the CAD 150 charged on most NAIT programmes, and it requires a completed diploma to enter.
Graduate Professional Certificate - Supply Chain Management is taught at the Northern Alberta Institute of Technology in Edmonton. NAIT is a PUBLIC polytechnic, which matters here: at a public institution the Canadian field of study requirement applies only to non degree credentials, and Graduate Professional Certificate - Supply Chain Management is a one year graduate professional certificate rather than a degree. Post-Graduation Work Permit eligibility for Graduate Professional Certificate - Supply Chain Management 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 Graduate Professional Certificate - Supply Chain Management also requires an Alberta attestation letter.
Applicants to Graduate Professional Certificate - Supply Chain Management need a completed diploma with a minimum of 50 percent. The English requirement is IELTS 6.5 with no band below 6.0, and tuition for Graduate Professional Certificate - Supply Chain Management is recorded at CAD 18,800 a year with a CAD 0 application fee. No scholarship is recorded against Graduate Professional Certificate - Supply Chain Management. Graduate Professional Certificate - Supply Chain Management lists five entry windows across September and January to 2028. Apply Study Visa manages the Graduate Professional Certificate - Supply Chain Management application, the deposit, the letter of acceptance and the Canadian study permit as one process.

Admission requirements
Who can apply (guide for international students):
- Education: A completed undergraduate diploma in a related field, at the percentage stated.
- English: IELTS Academic 6.5 overall with 6.0 in every band; TOEFL iBT 90 with 21 in every section; PTE Academic 60 with 58 in every component; or the Duolingo English Test at 120.
- Application and deposit: An application fee of CAD 0 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: Graduate Professional Certificate - Supply Chain Management is a one year graduate professional 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 and NAIT awards none. An Alberta attestation letter is required with the study permit application.
- Study permit: Apply Study Visa handles the Alberta attestation letter, the study permit application and the biometrics appointment with you.
