The IoSCM Level 2 Transport and Logistics course is tailored to students who have limited experience in the logistics and transport sector, who are keen to get a good grounding in place for their career.

The IoSCM Level 2 Logistics and Transport qualification is internationally recognised, and was designed and developed by experts in the field.

As well as training individuals, we also work with businesses to train larger groups of employees. To find out more about how we can develop your team’s skills, call us on 0800 1422 522.
What are National Occupational Standards?
The NOS framework specifies the UK standards of performance that people are expected to achieve in their work, and the knowledge and skills they need to perform effectively. These standards are approved by UK government regulators.
Essentially, meeting the NOS framework means that with the IoSCM Level 2 Logistics and Transport course, you will learn exactly what is required in order to be successful in your job role. This will help you to become a valuable asset within your role, giving you the kinds of skills you couldn’t gain from a more academically-focused course.
WHAT WILL I RECEIVE?
Through completion of this IoSCM Level 2 course, you will receive an internationally-recognised qualification in Logistics and Transport from the Institute of Supply Chain Management.
As well as this, you will be awarded a Level 2 in Supply Chain and Operations from SFEDI Awards, an Ofqual regulated awarding organisation which is well recognised across the industry.
What is Ofqual?
Ofqual is the government organisation that regulates qualifications and the organisations that offer them, maintaining standards and therefore confidence in education across England.
When you choose to study with IoSCM, you can rest assured that every qualification is Ofqual regulated, guaranteeing high quality and a worthy investment for individuals and employers alike.
WHAT IS THIS QUALIFICATION EQUIVALENT TO?
The IoSCM Level 2 Transport and Logistics course is roughly equivalent to a GCSE graded A* to C. However, an IoSCM course is studied in your own time, at your own pace and from the comfort of your own home. We offer logistics courses online rather than in the classroom, allowing you to study around your current commitments and save valuable time and money.
At IoSCM, we offer logistics qualifications which are widely recognised and sought after by employers and businesses. The Level 2 Transport and Logistics course provides you with valuable industry knowledge which is tailored to you and your logistics career, giving you the best chance of progressing within your role.
