My professional qualifications include MS (Software Systems) from BITS- Pilani and Bachelors of Engineering (Electronics and Communication) from Bangalore University. I am also a certified Project Management Professional (PMP) from Project Management Institute (PMI).

Close to 15 years, I have varied work experience spanning supply chain management, testing and development. I am presently working in the Quality Assurance department. I signed up for Certificate Program in Public Procurement (CPPP) as part of a management initiative to develop awareness about public procurement and related activities. Having been certified from APICS for Basic Supply Chain Management, I had a fair understanding of procurement related activities.

World Bank sponsored CPPP provided me with the right platform for obtaining know-how about public procurement operations in the public sector. This course also gave me a holistic view of all procurement related activities with a highly innovative tool to impart the course content. I enjoyed going through the course audio visuals and profoundly appreciate the content flow along with the pedagogy of the course.

The course nudges our way to right professionalism that has an impact on outcomes. I would recommend this course as “Mandatory” to all newbies in the field of public procurement.
