About CL Program – Chartered Logistician®

Building the Next Generation of Global Logistics Professionals

The Chartered Logistician® Program is a structured professional pathway designed to develop skilled professionals for the global logistics and supply chain industry.

Global trade, multimodal transport, and supply chain networks are becoming increasingly complex. Ports are expanding, air cargo is growing, e-commerce logistics is accelerating, and companies across the world require professionals who understand real operational logistics.

However, traditional education often focuses heavily on theory and offers limited exposure to real industry environments.

The Chartered Logistician® Program was created to bridge this gap by combining structured learning, real-world work exposure, and a progressive career pathway in global logistics.

A Structured Career Pathway in Global Logistics

The program follows a phase-based career growth pathway, allowing students to gradually develop industry capability while gaining real work exposure.

Instead of completing years of theoretical education before entering the workforce, the program integrates learning with practical industry experience.

Participants develop professional capability step-by-step while progressing toward higher levels of responsibility within the global logistics ecosystem.

Program Structure

The Chartered Logistician® Program consists of three progressive levels designed to build operational, analytical, and strategic capabilities.

Focus on building strong foundations in:

International trade operations
Freight forwarding and shipping processes
Export-import documentation
Customs procedures and compliance
Logistics operations and coordination

Upon successful completion of Level 1, participants become eligible for assured placement opportunities within the logistics industry.

This level focuses on developing higher capabilities in:

Global supply chain coordination
Logistics planning and network operations
Trade compliance and documentation expertise
Multimodal logistics management
Industry problem-solving and operational improvement

Participants gain deeper exposure to professional logistics environments while enhancing their industry responsibilities.

The final level focuses on developing strategic and managerial capability in global logistics.

Key areas include:

Supply chain strategy
Global trade regulations and policy understanding
Logistics leadership and decision-making
Advanced supply chain optimization
Strategic logistics management

After completing Level 3, participants become eligible to apply for the Chartered Logistician® professional credential.

After completing all three levels of the program, participants may apply for the Chartered Logistician® designation, a professional credential designed to recognize advanced capability in global logistics and supply chain management.

The Chartered designation reflects:

• Structured professional training
• Real industry exposure
• Progressive capability development
• Demonstrated professional competence

── Assured Placement After Level 1

A key feature of the program is the assured placement opportunity after completion of Level 1.

The objective is to ensure that participants gain early industry exposure, allowing them to understand real operational logistics environments while continuing their professional development.

This approach allows participants to start their careers earlier while continuing to grow professionally through the higher levels of the program.

── No Upfront Fee Model

The Chartered Logistician® Program is designed to reduce financial risk for students.

Participants are not required to pay the program fee upfront.

Instead, the payment structure follows an income-linked payment model, where fees are structured in alignment with participants’ income during their professional journey.

This model allows students to focus on learning and career development without financial pressure at the start.

── Performance-Linked Fee Protection

If a participant does not receive placement after completing Level 1, no program fee is charged for Level 1.

This ensures that the program maintains a strong alignment with career outcomes and industry readiness.

── Exit Options for Participants

The program also offers flexible exit points for participants who wish to pause or conclude their learning journey.

Participants may choose to exit:

After Level 2, with advanced logistics capability and industry experience
After Level 3, with strategic supply chain management capability

These exit options provide flexibility while still ensuring strong professional learning outcomes.

── Designed by Industry, Structured for Careers

The Chartered Logistician® Program has been structured by the International Chartered Logisticians Foundation (ICLF) with the objective of developing a professional capability framework for global logistics careers.

The program is delivered in collaboration with training institutions and industry partners to ensure practical industry relevance.

IISFT Skills Pvt. Ltd. acts as the training partner for delivering the program.
