More about the CPSM.
Congratulations to the First CPSM®!
ISM is pleased to announce Michael G. Haynes, CPSM, C.P.M., of Surprise,
Arizona as the first Certified Professional in Supply Management (CPSM®).
"This is really good news, and it's an honor to be the first CPSM®," Haynes
says. "I'll do my best to help ISM achieve the same level of respect for the
CPSM® that was achieved with the C.P.M."
Haynes passed all three CPSM® Exams as a pilot participant through ISM's
Arizona affiliate, NAPM—AZ.
Haynes is a lifetime C.P.M. whose career in supply management encompasses
17 management/executive positions within five different organizations. He is
currently employed by Siemens Building Technologies Inc. and has taught
procurement courses at Penn State University, conducted C.P.M. exam review
courses, and led seminars at several ISM affiliates. (Maybe you have taken
one of his classes!) Having completed the CPSM® Train-the-Trainer Program,
Haynes says he also plans to provide professional development and training
for the CPSM® certification.
ISM thanks Michael G. Haynes for his example and contributions to the
supply management profession.
