Here at Next Level Purchasing, we\u2019ve been tremendously busy with our annual content improvement process. While we make improvements throughout the entire year, once a year we go bananas and improve a ton of things at once!<\/p>\n

Here are a few things we\u2019ve done as part of this process\u2026<\/p>\n

1. To enhance your learning experience, we\u2019ve teamed up with Purchasing<\/em> Magazine to present several \u201cExtra Resources\u201d to students enrolled in each of our full-length online classes. Within each class, we\u2019ll link you to five articles that expand on the subject matter covered in that class! Each full-length class includes different Extra Resources.<\/p>\n

2. We\u2019ve reviewed all of the classes and made improvements. Many of these improvements were driven from the suggestions of our students, so\u2026thank you!<\/p>\n

3. We\u2019ve made \u201cMicrosoft Project For Purchasing Professionals\u201d compatible with Microsoft\u2019s recently released version of Project, Project 2007. If you\u2019re already enrolled in this purchasing class, look for the new instructions on the first page after you log in. (Provigil<\/a>) <\/p>\n

We have a lot more going on. I\u2019ll save more for blog posts later in the week!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
