Shelton State Community College Certified Logistics Technician Course Preparing Students for the Job Market

October 14, 2021 – As manufacturing demand continues its rise, Shelton State Community College’s Workforce Development will offer a certified logistics training course beginning Monday, October 25.  The sessions will meet in a hybrid format with a combination of in-person and online sessions.

Certificates will be awarded for two credentials: the foundational-level Certified Logistics Associate (CLA) and the mid-level Certified Logistics Technician (CLT) credentials.  Those completing both credentials may also be eligible for a $300 stipend and a one-time tuition and fee waiver for one college course up to four credit hours.

Certified logistics technician training addresses the core technical competencies of higher skilled, frontline material-handling workers in all supply chain facilities and in factories, warehouses, distribution centers, and transportation companies.

According to Darryl Ballew, SSCC’s Assistant Director of Training for Business and Industry, this credentialing is critical for today’s workforce.  “With an ever-increasing demand in manufacturing for qualified logistics technicians, this class is a must.”
