Industrial storekeeper and stock manager

What happens in the store

The day starts with receiving: quantity check, quality check, matching against the order, handling discrepancies. Then comes location coding — every reference has a place, and that place is recorded. Issues punctuate the morning, with an issue note, and the discipline of recording at the moment of serving. Cycle counting takes a fixed slot each week: count one family of references, compare with book stock, explain the gap rather than quietly correcting it.

Where stores are run

Duration, credits, hours: the facts

The hours shown are taught hours, led by an instructor and set in the timetable. Personal study comes on top of them under the catalogue rule: twenty-five hours of total work per credit. Both figures are given together so that the real workload reads clearly on a first visit.

What the qualification actually contains

Here is the framework exactly as filed, with the taught hours of each block. A candidate sees what they will learn; an employer sees what the holder can do on arrival. One document serves both readings, which closes the usual gap between a brochure and a job description.
