=============================
The CPIM Cert has the following:
APICS annual membership fee (free for students)
And then 5 courses at $190 each
1) Basics of Supply Chain Management (OPM-301)
2) Strategic Management of Resources (OPM-470)
3) Master Planning of Resources (OPM-313)
4) Detailed Scheduling and Planning (OPM-331)
5) Execution & Control of Operations (OPM-332)
-Additional Amount for Self-Study Printed Materials ($140 each course)
-Additional Amount for Exam Simulator (Bundle, $200 )
In case you were planning on going the CPIM route, the certification is being reconfigured this year. The exams won't be available after this summer, I believe. I'm currently studying for them now. Here is a link: https://www.apics.org/credentials-educat...figuration. The five exams will be condensed to only two and I'm not sure how that will affect the credit awarded or if the new exams will even carry credit.
