As a supply chain and logistics management student, you have completed key aspects of the discipline throughout your qualification, namely, management, logistics, procurement, sustainability, warehouse and inventory management. This question requires you to reflect on your knowledge and understanding of transportation management as a component of supply chain management. You are required to write a one-page report where you reflect on: • Your experience of learning the discipline of transportation management. Which areas of this module did you find most interesting to learn about? Have you learned anything interesting from a SADC perspective? • Which areas of this module did you find most challenging to learn about? Why? • What are some of the skills you have learned thus far (i.e., reflection, critical thinking, technology, artificial intelligence – or any other) that you believe will be able to assist you once you have graduated? • In your opinion, based on what you have learned, do you think transportation management practices differ between SADC countries and European countries? Why/Why not? Would you take your skills and qualifications and actively look for employment within South Africa/SADC or would you prefer to work internationally? Why?
