CIPS Management Entry Route

CIPS Management Entry Route (MER) is designed for procurement professionals who are already operating in a senior strategic role within procurement or supply chain management with extensive on-the-job experience.

ABA Procurement offer one to one guidance to work through the requirements of this entry route in which you will be assessed for your experience, knowledge and responsibility through an online questionnaire and a telephone interview.

This is a robust and rigorous process designed for senior professionals in upper management roles, usually with at least five years’ experience at a strategic level, and by working through it with assistance from ABA Procurement can see you reaching MCIPS status within approximately six months.

What’s Included?

The MER route supported by ABA Procurement gives you one to one tuition with a highly experienced procurement professional. Your tutor will work with you through the entire application process to guide you to achieving your potential.

Most students use around twenty hours of support which is entirely bespoke and can run at a pace to suit you, whether you’d like to take three months working your application, or a year.
