TESTIMONIALS

My association and membership of the African Institute for Supply Chain Research has contributed meaningfully to my professional, academical and personal development. Through my membership, I have access to invaluable information on Supply Chain and Research amongst others.

I urge all SCM enthusiast to consider joining AISCR. AISCR is a leading Pan African research institute that conducts innovative research on supply chain management to support continental wide sustainable development and inclusive growth. AISCR strive to distinguish itself as a non-profit research institute and viewed as authoritative figure on supply chain research in Africa whose work remains non-partisan. Finally, through AISCR weekly Research Support Webinar, I have the opportunity to learn how to conduct great research that will assist me as I prepare to take up my journey of studying towards a Masters in Supply Chain Management.

AISCR provides Valuable Avenue whereby supply chain research experts across the continent and in the diaspora channel their expertise towards the much-needed innovative supply chain research in Africa, supply chain knowledge development, and facilitate best-practice on the continent. As a result, the AISCR has further equipped me with well-grounded resource to disseminate supply chain operations, and management practices from an African perspective! 

It is indeed a great honor to be a member of the AISCR.

The institute is also a major contributor to the supply chain management body of knowledge, through insightful lectures by renowned professionals in the field, workshops, peer reviewed journals and magazines, where opportunities for one to one research and writing skills are also sharpened.

AISCR ceaselessly worked hard in developing lots of programmes related to Supply Chain Management area and also the Research methodology webinar series that can be useful for young or early career researchers in Africa. I also presented my speech on “Formulating Research Design” which was part of this webinar series organized on 12 September 2020. I wish the AISCR, all the very best will address the various supply chain-related challenges not only in Africa but also in the rest of the world.
