Humanitarian Logisticians and Supply Chain Managers are
called upon to provide responses in a variety of situations,
sometimes planned for, but often happening without warning. In
such situations, they must have the ability to quickly construct
and operate a supply chain to bring relief to those in need.
The Fritz-CILT Humanitarian Certification Programmes are
recognised by NGOs including ICRC, UNICEF, WFP, UNHCR,
Save the Children, Oxfam, International Rescue Committee,
MSF, World Vision and IMC. The Programmes have come to
be recognised as the leading Programmes for logisticians both
already working in the field and those who wish to join these or
similar organisations.
MedLog is aimed at experienced logisticians and medical
specialists handing and planning the medical supply chain and
cold chain within humanitarian organisations.
The self-paced distance learning is designed specifically for those
presently working (or plan to work) in operational supply chain
positions within humanitarian organisations.
There are no academic pre-requisites to joining the programmes.
Less experienced logisticians are recommended to take the
Certification in Humanitarian Logistics programmes first.

The Study Method

SCILaid is the learning platform used for our online programmes for the
humanitarian sector. MedLog uses the innovative ‘competence model
approach’ which emphasizes application of skills, as opposed to the
examination of knowledge.

At the start of the course, the candidate (or student) is inserted into a realistic
scenario in which they have to manage logistics functions. The tasks that
they are requested to do are designed to facilitate the development of the
required skills or the demonstration of experience, as defined in the
competence model.

Throughout the programme, candidates are supported by coaches

experienced in humanitarian logistics. The team at LLA also assess
candidates’ assignments and determine when they are ready to proceed to
the next unit.
