CPIM 9.0 Is Here

The world of supply chains is evolving — and so is CPIM.

ASCM is introducing CPIM 9.0, the next evolution of the globally recognized Certified in Planning and Inventory Management (CPIM) credential. This updated version reflects today’s realities: more complex supply chains, greater uncertainty, and a stronger need for strategic, end-to-end planning skills.

What’s new in CPIM 9.0?

While CPIM 9.0 maintains the single-exam format supply chain professionals value, the content has been refreshed to better align with modern supply chain practices, tools, and expectations. Candidates can expect:

  • Updated content aligned with today’s planning and inventory challenges

  • Continued focus on core domains like strategy, S&OP, demand, supply, inventory, and scheduling

  • Greater emphasis on resilience, performance, and real-world application

  • The same trusted CPIM framework — modernized for today’s supply chains
