It incorporates learning advanced analytics and mathematical optimization to find solutions for supply chain problems. You\u2019ll learn how to use linear programming, mixed integer programming, and heuristics to conduct prescriptive analytics related to production processes, distribution networks, and routing. The course serves as a capstone for the program by culminating in a hackathon where you\u2019ll design networks, inventory policies, and scenarios and then evaluate the outcomes via simulations.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003EThe online version of the course is comprised of (4) half-day online instructor-led LIVE group webinars and pre-work (e.g. installing and testing software on your computer, testing connectivity with LMS and meeting software, etc.) to be completed before the first day of the course.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Ch3\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EWho Should Attend\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/h3\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003EExperienced business professionals who perform or want to perform analytics to improve their supply chain management processes.
