DIPLOMA PROGRAM IN LOGISTICS

Logistics is key for the development of value chains in Argentina. It encompasses goods transportation, storage and control, and consolidation and deconsolidation, as well as the infrastructure, operation, and regulation of each activity and of the different modes of transport: road, railway, inland water / maritime, and air transport. The efficiency of the logistics system has a direct impact on the competitiveness of the country’s main productive activities, both at the regional and international levels.

The Federal School of Development of the Federal Investment Council (CFI) is now accepting applications for the Diploma Program in Logistics, aimed at provincial government officials interested in the analysis, diagnosis, and development of solutions to the challenges posed by logistics at the regional, national, and global levels.

  • Incorporate a strategic theoretical framework to understand logistics not only as a set of operations, but as a complex and strategic system that drives competitiveness, integrates territories, and connects regions with productive opportunities at the national and global levels.
  • Provide analytical tools to understand Argentina’s logistics landscape, identifying the dynamics, gaps, and potential of each region and province, in order to interpret challenges and identify opportunities from a federal perspective.
