How do you become a sourcing in Minnesota?
There is no state-issued license required to work in sourcing in Minnesota. Most roles require a bachelor's degree in supply chain, business administration, or a related field, and employers across the Twin Cities increasingly prefer candidates with a Certified Professional in Supply Management designation from the Institute for Supply Management.
