For those of you interested in a career change head on over to the Fritz Institute and and try your luck at winning a Certification in Humanitarian Logistics (CHL) Scholarship. Ten scholarships will be awarded this year to the lucky winners. Apparently, the CHL course is for entry level folk while the Supply Chain Management track is for veteran field people although I am not sure if it is actually up and running.
Fritz Institute is the creator of the HELIOS software package for humanitarian logistics tracking which I had the privilege of reviewing in my previous life.

Thanks for the shout-out. The deadline for applications is 31 August! The scholarships are for full tuition to the Certification in Humanitarian Logistics (CHL) and are available to individuals with minimum 6 months’ experience in the field with a humanitarian organization. Registration in the CHL course itself is open to anyone currently working in the field or wishing to move into this sector. Info at http://www.fritzinstitute.org. And btw, the Supply Chain Management track, (Certification in Humanitarian Supply Chain Management, or CHSCM) IS up and running.
Thanks for contributing to sustainability through encouraging effectiveness and capacity for humanitarian logistics.
Well, do you have full tuition scholarships for 2009 Certification in Humanitarian Logistics, I wish to be considered for such financial assistance.
