Advanced GS1 System Certificate Course
Overview of Advanced GS1 System Certificate Course
The Advanced GS1 System Certificate Course builds on the knowledge gained in the introductory GS1 System Certificate and goes into more detail on GS1 standards application in traceability and data sharing systems.
Completing the Advanced Course will give you a more in-depth knowledge of GS1’s identification numbers for asset identification and tracking (GRAI, GIAI). The more advanced Data Carriers are covered, including the barcode symbologies GS1 Datamatrix and GS1-128, which are used extensively to support product visibility and traceability systems in the Food and Healthcare sectors.
The course also includes modules on; the GS1 Global Standards Management Process (GSMP), the process through which GS1 standards are developed; the fundamentals of traceability within the supply chain; the world of GS1 RFID standards and event-data capture through the Electronic Product Code Information Services (EPCIS) and finally; the principles of data quality are covered, which is essential to the smooth operation of today’s supply chains, regardless of the technology used.
