The signals behind the Certificate I in Supply Chain Operations are mixed, and both sides are worth weighing. Employment is projected to grow through 2035 and enrolments are rising. The official shortage list does not rate its occupations in shortage. These are official statistics, not a promise about your result.
Job ads for storepersons are holding steady. About 2,163 storeperson jobs were advertised online in June 2026, up 4.4% on a year earlier. Over the last 12 months there were about 26,800 job ads, while 20 people were training in the qualification nationally (2025). Ads show the market. Enrolments show the pipeline. Neither is a job promise.
