Edward Sweeney of NITL has been elected to a Fellowship of the Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport (CILT).
The Chartered Institute of Transport and the Institute of Logistics & Transport merged in 2002 to form the CILT. The principal objective of the Institute is “To promote the art and science of logistics and transport in Ireland”. It achieves this objective through both its membership and its educational qualifications, which are both invaluable to an individual’s career. The Institute is a membership-based organisation with over 30,000 members in over 30 countries.
Election to Fellowship is granted by the Institute’s Council in the case of an individual’s undoubted eminence in the logistics, transport and supply chain management industry. Edward was presented with his Fellow’s certificate at the recent CILT International Speech and new members orientation ceremony in the Shelbourne Hotel in Dublin. This year’s speech was delivered by Liam Cassidy and was entitled "Implementing Change Programs - why they succeed and why they fail".
