The Polytechnic Institute of Northern Canada is Pleased to Add an Additional Centre To Its Array of Educational Centres: The CITT Centre of Excellence in Logistics Learning – the First in Northern Canada

Slide 1

“I commend the Polytechnic Institute of Northern Canada and the Canadian Institute of Traffic and Transportation (CITT) for establishing the first Center of Excellence in Logistics Learning in Northern Canada. This great initiative will serve as a catalyst to advance the priorities we formulated in the Northwest Territories (NWT) Transportation Strategy 2015-2040. The road, air, rail, and marine transportation systems play a critical role in the history and development of the NWT and continue to support sustainable communities and a growing economy into the future.”

Tom Beaulieu,

Former Minister of NWT Transportation and The Polytechnic Institute of Northern Canada Indigenous Advisor.

Slide 2

“We are honoured to be recognized as the first Centre of Excellence in Logistics Learning in Northern Canada. As an enthusiastic environmentalist, I believe that providing world-class logistics education – tailored to the unique needs of northern and Indigenous communities – is an important way of protecting the environment, addressing various supply chain issues, and supporting self- governance and self-determination initiatives of Indigenous peoples across Canada.”

Dr. Chehrazade Aboukinane,

Environment and Sustainability Expert and The Polytechnic Institute of Northern Canada President.

The Polytechnic Institute of Northern Canada Centre of Pathways to Professional Designations is dedicated to guiding individuals toward achieving recognized professional credentials in their chosen fields. Our centre provides comprehensive support, resources, and training to help students and professionals meet the requirements and standards of various professional designations.

The Polytechnic Institute of Northern Canada flagship professional designation program is the CCLP designation in logistics (CCLP: CITT-Certified Logistics Professional), which is considered the gold standard for logistics designations in Canada. We are proud to have been recognized and accredited by CITT as only one of four Centres of Excellence in Logistics Learning in all of Canada, and the only one in Northern Canada.

The courses in the program include the following:

Specialized CCLP courses:

General Business courses:

The CCLP courses equip learners with the knowledge and skills to assume entry-level management positions in logistics and transportation – crucial for the ongoing well-being of the Northern economy. The Polytechnic Institute of Northern Canada educates young professionals in order to enhance careers, boost economic efficiency, and improve communities by fostering better infrastructure, streamlined operations, informed decision-making, legal compliance, and effective supply chain management.

As the Polytechnic Institute of Northern Canada is based in Yellowknife, its leadership understands how important logistics is in the North – dealing with logistical extremes such as communities with fly-in, ice road, and boat/barge only access; vast geographical distances with limited telecommunications and support; and extremes from ice roads in the winter to challenging wildfires in the summer. Few other educational institutions in Canada can equip logistics learners to deal with the extremes found in the North.

Through these professional pathways, the Polytechnic Institute of Northern Canada develops its students to lay the groundwork for pathways to better lives, stronger communities, and a brighter future for the North.
