国际注册供应链经理IPSCMI协会介绍

IPSCMI, The International Purchasing and Supply Chain Management Institute, is the only organization of its kind offering a complete “portfolio” of training, education, and professional certification programs offered throughout the world in all modes of instruction, including conventional public seminars, in-house seminars, online, satellite, and other distance learning modes. IPSCMI is the “brainchild” of Dr. LeRoy Graw, who created a predecessor organization with the same mission and scope of operations in 1989 called the “National Contract Service Corporation” (NCSC). NCSC ceased its operations in 1999 when Dr. Graw shifted his business focus from the US to Asia . Because of its similar business scope, IPSCMI is in fact “the son of NCSC”. IPSCMI is a Limited Liability Corporation (LLC) in the State of Delaware , United States of America . Its shareholders include such distinguished individuals/organizations as the American Purchasing Society, Singapore Purchasing and Supply Association (PASAS), Cattan Services Group, Inc. and Jumanji Group, (US and China branches). These organizations are, in addition, esteemed and valuable alliance partners of the IPSCMI.

IPSCMI, 国际采购供应链管理协会 是唯一一个其类型的在世界范围内以多种教学模式提供完善的综合性教育培训及专业认证项目服务的组织。多样化的教学模式包括传统的公共研讨会、企业内部研讨会、在线、卫星及其他远程教育模式。 IPSCMI 是 LeRoy Graw 博士智慧的结晶，他于 1989 年创立了与 IPSCMI 具有相同使命及经营范围的前身组织“国家合同服务集团”（ NCSC ）。 1999 年 Graw 博士将商务重心由美国转向亚洲 NCSC 便停止了运营。由于二者间相似的经营范围及规模， IPSCMI 实质上可称为“ NCSC 之子” 。 IPSCMI 是一个位于美国 Graw 洲的有限责任公司 (LLC) ，股东包括许多卓著的组织机构及个人如美国采购协会、新加坡采购供应协会 (PASAS) 、 Cattan 服务集团有限公司及 Jumanji 集团（美国及中国分支机构）。这些卓越的团体组织同时也构成了 IPSCMI 尊贵且极具价值的合作伙伴。

IPSCMI''s purchasing and supply chain management courses and programs are provided around the world by a complete network of alliance partners which contract with IPSCMI for collaboration in conducting the IPSCMI programs. Training courses are usually joint IPSCMI/alliance partner efforts, in order to deliver quality programs catering to the needs of the diverse student clientele. Instructors, whether they are provided by IPSMCI or the alliance partner, must be certified in the discipline they teach. In Asia and the Middle East , every effort is made to find qualified local instructors, who can teach the curricula in the local native language, without the need for interpretation. When American or other non-native instructors are used, a local interpreter with intensive background/knowledge of purchasing and supply chain management acts as a “second instructor” for those students without complete English facility.

IPSCMI 的采购供应链管理课程及项目是由与其签约的旨在通过共同协作实施 IPSCMI 的项目并形成一体化网络的合作伙伴在全世界范围内提供的。为满足客户学员多样化的需求提供高质量的培训项目，培训课程通常由 IPSCMI 及其合作伙伴联合提供。无论是来自 IPSCMI 或是其合作伙伴的讲师均需具备所教授学科的专业认证。在亚洲及中东地区正在通过极大的努力寻找合格的能用本土语言授课而不需翻译人员帮助的当地讲师。当聘用美籍或非本地讲师时，一个具有精深采购供应链管理知识背景的当地译员便成了那些不具备完全英文能力学员的“第二个讲师”。

A: Certified purchasing and supply chain management professionals earn almost $15,000 more per year than non-certified purchasing and supply management professionals, according to Purchasing Magazine''s 2004 Salary Survey. The survey reveals that certified purchasing and supply chain management professionals earn an average of $80,800 per year. Professionals without certification earn an average of $66,300 per year.

A: 根据采购杂志 2004 年的薪资调查，具备认证资格的采购供应链管理专业人员的年薪比没有认证资格的专业人员的年薪高出 $ 15 ， 000 。此调查显示，具备认证资格的采购供应链管理专业人员平均年薪为 $80,800 而不具备认证资格的专业人员的平均年薪为 $66,300 。

Annual salaries from this year''s respondents range from $15,000 to $270,000. Median salaries for professionals in supply management rose 5%, to $63,000, an increase of $3,000 over last year''s numbers. Since 1981, professionals in supply management have seen their salaries rise 114%, with 48% of this increase occurring within the last ten years. Additionally, more professionals are receiving bonuses as part of their total compensation. More than half of the survey respondents, (55%) indicate they received bonuses in 2004. Bonuses for these professionals averaged just over 10% of their annual base pay.

今年的调查问卷显示年薪水平为 $15,000 到 $270,000 不等。供应管理专业人员中级水平的工资是 $63,000 增长了 5% ，比去年多了 $3,000 。从 1981 年以来，供应管理专业人员的薪资增长了 114% ，其中 48% 的增长是在近十年中发生的。此外，越来越多的专业人员领取奖金作为他们总报酬的一部分。 55% 的问卷回答者表明他们在 2004 年中领取了奖金。奖金在这些专业人员的基本年薪中所占比例超过 10% 。

The survey also indicates that certified professionals have an average of four more years experience than do non-certified professionals. This figure corresponds directly to compensation. The typical age of survey participants was 45.6 years of age. Salaries for this group (41 to 50 years) averaged $72,300 per year.

调查还显示具备认证资格的专业人员比不具备认证资格的专业人员平均多出四年的从业经验，此数据与报酬差异相当。问卷调查的参与者典型年龄为 45.6 岁，此年龄组（ 41 至 50 岁）的平均年薪为 $72,300 。

Education continues to be one of the most important factors related to upward mobility within the supply management profession, according to the survey. Almost three quarters of the participants (71%) have a college degree or a certification. Better educated professionals receive the highest ranking professional positions, have the most responsibilities, work for larger companies and have a higher earning potential.

根据调查，教育状况是供应管理行业中影响晋升机率最重要的因素之一。近三分之一 (71%) 的调查问卷参与者拥有大学学历或学位。教育程度高的专业人员占据行业中的高层职务，担负众多的职责，效力于规模较大的公司且拥有较高的收入潜力。

A: This is a perennial question, and one which can be answered only in an immediate, organizational context. Most managers (but not all) support professional certification and prefer to hire and promote those who are certified. If the manager is him/herself certified, the odds are that he/she will favor those who are similarly certified. Promotions of course depend on your performance after you get hired. My experience is that excellent performance coupled with professional certification provides an unbeatable combination and a sure-fire route to promotion!! My experience again tells me that “certification is the “Housekeeping Seal of Approval”. It provides “the racer''s edge” when everything else (education, background, experience, etc.) is equal!

A: 这是个长期性的问题，必须将它放在一个即时的组织环境中才能回答。大多数（但不是所有）的经理支持专业认证并倾向于聘用和提升具有认证资格的人员。如果经理人自身就具备认证资格，可能性便是他 / 她青睐于同样也具有认证资格的人。晋升机率当然取决于受顾后的业绩表现。我自身的经验是出色的业绩表现加上专业认证资格是无与伦比的组合及晋升的不二法门！同时我的经验还告诉我专业认证是“好管家的证明标志”，当其他资质（教育、背景、经验等）均相当时专业认证为竞争者提供了优势。
