present to win. February would have been Kevin Becker had he been there. Tough luck Kevin, see you next time.
Knowing this, why do most companies’ forecasting capabilities tend to remain stubbornly immature? What forecast methods
produce superior results? Hank will share with us eight forecasting techniques that produce superior results.

“APICS has been offering classes at WhiteWave’s headquarters, which has been truly beneficial for our company. We recently completed the five CPIM courses, and had people from all areas of the supply chain enrolled. In a fast-paced, evolving field like Operations and Supply Chain, it’s important to stay informed with new practices and ideas. APICS allows busy professionals to gain important knowledge and skills while only committing a couple hours a week at class. It’s all possible because of the dedicated instructors that make learning easy with their passion to teach and real-world expertise.” Ben Osenbaugh, CPIM, Fluid Transportation Logistics Specialist, WhiteWave Foods Company

What are Students saying about APICS Education in Colorado?
“While I attended APICS classes, I was quick to realize the valuable resources being introduced. As a professional in the supply chain world, I was able to immediately apply a number of the topics presented by APICS to our day-to-day activities. APICS has set me apart from my peers, as I am now able to present ideas and tactics that are not readily understood by everyone. I am grateful for the knowledge I have received and am excited of the possibilities going forward” Dan Clement, Distribution Center Manger, Brewers Supply
“After recently obtaining my CPIM certification through the completion of all the APICS requirements, I can honestly say it has greatly broadened my understanding and capacity to function at not only the tactical level, but also the strategic level within the Supply Chain Management organization. The information and insight provided by the APICS instructors through the learning material is truly invaluable in today’s complex, global realm of business.” - Brett Horacek, CPIM, CSCP, Supply Chain Management, Hospira, Inc. ”I just wanted to pass on my very appreciative thanks to you and Honey and the entire instructor team or all the Saturday
classes you got me through and the extra help when I needed it. I have been a supply chain professional now for more
than 20 years, but still realized I needed to take the CPIM review courses and exams to validate my experience and
knowledge. I would definitely recommend this CPIM program and coursework to any professional Supply Chain
Executive an intelligent solution and excellent way to re-energize your "career drag.” I believe the courses were an
effective part process of exam preparation because the in class review program is an excellent way to prepare and allows
time between classes to catch up on more detailed reading. The instructors are highly qualified and come prepared to
share their real life experiences and can answer any questions direct from the course content. I plan to enroll in the CSCP
course in the very near future.” Dave Korty, MBA, Vice President of Supply Chain and Logistics, North America
”I wanted the take the APICS CSCP certification to improve my understanding of the supply chain and increase my employment prospects. I discovered that I did several things well in my previous job, but I also learned so many new practices and ideas that I will be able to take with me to a new job. I completed my CSCP certification in 3 months and I thought that the classroom format worked very well with the five Saturday classes spread out over a few months, which allowed plenty of time for reading and study. Use of the online tools and resources, reading schedules, and chapter tests were also instrumental in my ability to successfully pass the exam and receive my CSCP certification. During the classes, the interaction with very knowledgeable instructors and fellow students from different industries was extremely interesting and edifying. They were more than willing to share their personal experiences and answer questions regarding the content of the class and how to put it in to practice in the real world. The Colorado Chapter’s high exam passing rate is a testament to the skill and passion of their instructors and their knowledge of the APICS Body of Knowledge. I am also taking the CPIM course and I would highly recommend it. These courses are valuable tools for greater success and advancing further in your career.“ John S. Wood, CSCP, Supply Chain Professional
