Active learning projects

This programme incorporates active learning projects (ALPs), an approach that combines knowledge, inquiry and reflection to give you a deeply rooted understanding of key frameworks and skills. ALPs require learners to adopt a holistic approach to problem-solving. Fostering multidisciplinary and organisational knowledge, proactive practices, self-awareness and networking, ALPs enable learning to continue well beyond programme completion.

Throughout the programme, you will analyse different aspects of the supply chain within your organisation or industry, use the knowledge you have gained to propose a solution, develop and implement a strategy, and reflect and reframe the proposal. ​Each module adopts a new focus, giving you the opportunity to create a comprehensive, robust portfolio that demonstrates your ability to apply concepts in a real-world scenario.​
