Victoria University and Linfox Australia are working together to improve and enhance the skills of people working in logistics and supply chain management.
The university’s Institute for Logistics & Supply Chain Management (ILSCM) has signed an agreement to collaborate with Linfox Australia to provide logistics and supply chain management education and associated research.
The partnership gives Linfox access to logistics education from a vocational level through to Master’s degree level and both organisations will work together on relevant research projects.
"The institute’s vision is to become the ‘knowledge centre of choice’ for logistics and supply chain management in the Asia Pacific area. With Linfox operating throughout this region, this collaboration will go a long way towards achieving this vision," says
Dr Pieter Nagel, director of ILSCM.
Linfox chairman Peter Fox says the agreement extends the company’s commitment to educating its people at all levels of the supply chain industry.
