Channel Partner Agreement
As you know, APICS launched a newly redesigned website. Based on the
feedback from volunteers, corporate enhanced the search and
functionality of the site to provide users with the best possible web
experience. One of the enhanced features is the APICS Partner and
Event Finder
. The finder offers members and customers the ability to find APICS
certification exams, education and training, and membership services
locally.
Two years ago, corporate introduced the Chapter Course Listing program
as a way to help market chapter courses to the public. Chapter officers
uploaded their classes to the course submission link, and the district
webmasters posted the events to the district website. With the upgrade
to the APICS Partner and Event Finder, we will discontinue the Chapter
Course Listing program. No longer are chapter officers required to
submit their course information to multiply outlets; now it’s one place,
one submission, a global reach!
How To Market Your Classes And Events Using Partner Connect
When you enter Partner Connect, you should first click on the ‘Partner
Profile’ link, and update the information listed within both the
‘Partner Location’ and ‘Partner Description’ tabs.
Next, you should use click on the ‘Calendar of Events’ tab to post your
chapter courses, events, and services. As a result, the information you
provide within the ‘Partner Profile’ is published within the APICS
Partner and Event Finder. We are confident that the public will use the
finder as a one-stop shop to finding APICS resources and services
locally.
How To Enter Partner Connect
If you have logged into the APICS website, you should see a tab on the
home page titled, My APICS.
If you select the My APICS tab you will see Access Partner Connect on
the right tool bar.

APICS Districts-North America
APICS has more than 200 local chapters in North America, which are
divided into 9 geographic Districts. Each District elects a District
Director and a District Manager through a special nomination committee
made up of chapter presidents within the District.
The District Director's primary function is to be a member of the APICS
Board of Directors. As a member of the Board of Directors; the District
Director provides recommendations and philosophical direction during the
development of policies, procedures, and educational offerings to ensure
they enhance the profession of operations management.
The District Manager has a volunteer District support staff to assist
with the development and implementation of chapter management training
and two-way communication between APICS corporate and the local chapter.
These individuals serve on the District Manager Committee and provide
support and guidance to enable chapters to meet the minimum standards in
promoting the objectives of the Association.
