About Supply Chain Canada — West

The Western
institute of
Supply Chain
Canada.

Supply Chain Canada — West is the regional institute of Supply Chain Canada — the national association that has advanced the supply chain profession since 1919. We serve the procurement, logistics, operations and planning professionals of Alberta, British Columbia, the Yukon and the Northwest Territories.

Our mandate is three-fold: advance the profession in the West through regional learning, convene the network through chapter events and the flagship Futures Conference, and support the national association's mission of certification and standards.

Our Swim Lane SCC West delivers regional events, chapter programming, and the Futures Conference. National designations (SCMP, SMT), accreditation and standards are stewarded by Supply Chain Canada nationally.

03

The Credit

10 CPD credits earned in a single day — applicable to SCMP holders and an immediate boost to your designation logbook. Certificate delivered within 5 business days.

03 / Voices

From the
Western
network.

Members and 2025 conference attendees — on what the institute and the conference mean to their careers.

The most senior procurement room I've sat in west of Toronto. Three vendor introductions there turned into signed contracts inside ninety days.

VP, Supply Chain · Edmonton

SCC West gives me the regional context the national association can't — and the chapter mixers are where I actually meet my peers face-to-face.
