Certification in Humanitarian Logistics (CHL) is offered as part of the Fritz Institute/CILT (UK) Humanitarian ogistics Certification Program. It combines best practices in supply chain management and implementation from the humanitarian community, commercial world, and academia. The pioneering program meets the need across the humanitarian sector for accessible, cost-effective training for active logistics professionals, who play a vital role in their organization’s success.

CHL is aimed at people who work (or aspire to work) within humanitarian aid organizations in (or interacting with) supply functions, typically involving warehousing, transport and/or inventory. The self-paced distance learning is designed specifically for those presently working, often in deep field locations, with busy schedules, and require flexibility in their learning schedules. There are no academic pre-requisites.

CHL uses the innovative ‘competence model’ approach, which emphasizes application of skills, as opposed to the examination of knowledge. At the start of the course, the candidate (or student) is inserted into a reality-based scenario in which they have to advise on and manage logistics functions. The tasks that they are requested to do are designed to facilitate the development of and demonstration that they have the required skills, as defined in the competence model.

Throughout the program, which is administered by the Logistics Learning Alliance, candidates are supported by learning coaches experienced in logistics. These coaches also assess candidates’ assignments and determine when they are ready to proceed to the next unit.

Candidates should expect to take 18 months to complete the program, studying approximately 5 hours per week. During that time, a portfolio documenting the candidate’s achievements and skills is collated for submission at the end of the program to the awarding body (CILT-UK) for final assessment.

The CHL programme can also be studied on a module-by-module basis. Please contact us at hlcregistrations@logisticslearningalliance.com for more information on this option.

"I just returned from a one month trip to assist a health clinic in Sierra Leone.  I found what I had learned in humanitarian logistics to be invaluable to them in assisting them in so many ways in warehousing, inventory management, procurement, transportation, and hiring just to name a few.  I really appreciate what I learned from your certification course." - Holly Graf, completed CHL student
