The Australian Logistics Academy was formed in the 1990’s for the purpose of providing training and education to advance Logistics and Supply Chain Management practices in Australia and the region. It continues to grow as a professional organisation for Logisticians and plays a major role for Members and the business community by providing access to quality management information, resources, practical education and business networking.
After the first success of the program as well as the increasing growth of supply chain among Vietnamese companies in recent years, ALA has joined in a partnership with MGC Institute of Logistics (MIL) in Việt Nam. One of the advantages of this cooperating program is that students in Việt Nam can enroll in any on-line courses of ALA and ask for support at any time. MIL has become the pioneer and the single ATP of ALA in Vietnam, offering Diploma & Advance Diploma courses in Supply Chain Management & Logistics program.
The program, conducted by lecturers from Australia, has the similar or lower fee than one in Australia. This training model has been successfully developed in Singapore, Malaysia, and India for eight years, and Vietnam is among its potential successful candidates.
