Procurement is experiencing a meteoric rise and fast becoming one of the World's in-demand and highly paid professions. This comes as no surprise as corporations and government agencies cannot function without Procurement. The number of Procurement jobs listed on Job platforms like BrighterMonday, GulfTalent, Indeed, KillerLaunch, LinkedIn, Monster, Naukri and Seek demonstrates Procurement is in massive demand everywhere. Despite this, many Procurement professionals remain trapped by the limitations of their skills in mediocre purchasing and sourcing jobs with poor levels of engagement and dismal pay. Recruiters will correctly tell you that in the aftermath of Covid-19, with growing competition for Procurement roles, there has never been a more prudent time to attain Specialist skills. The obstacles to attaining such skills are formidable: Most educational institutions teach Procurement that is theoretical and out of sync with the complexities of real Procurement work. It comes as no surprise that this education is uninspiring and highly expensive, with significant Student drop-out rates. In the recent words of one of our Students: “I spent a lot of money on certifications that got me nowhere. When I joined Nolan School, I feel like my career found purpose and direction again. It changed the way I think about Procurement. I’m falling in love with my profession. What I learn at this School is beyond Procurement textbook knowledge. I’ve learned how to strategically approach the way I expedite Procurement. I’ve worked in this profession for a long time without really understanding the difference between an RFQ and an ITO. I now feel a lot more confident about interviewing for a senior role.”
