Introduction to the Supply Chain Skill Set

Jobs and Skills WA: Warehousing courses
Career starter — Includes your forklift licence — Fee-free!

Every item or product that we own comes to us via a supply chain — from the manufacturer, to the distributor, to the retailer — and this is an exciting fast paced field to work in!

In this course, you'll gain job ready skills for an entry level job in warehousing, transport or logistics — you'll even get your forklift licence! You’ll learn the basics about the supply chain and how it works, and how to safely handle goods and materials and send them on to the next stage of the supply chain. You’ll be job ready to work in a warehouse or distribution centre, helping to make sure supermarket shelves stay stocked and that manufacturers and warehouses can fill orders and send out products.
