A new credentialing system has been developed for "front-line workers" in supply chain logistics. The certifications are the foundational-level Certified Logistics Associate (CLA) certificate and the mid-level Certified Logistics Technician (CLT) certification.

These certifications address the core competencies of higher skilled, front-line material handling workers (entry-level to the first line of supervision) across the supply chain—from factories, to warehouses, to distribution centers, to transporters.

The certification system was created by the Manufacturing Skill Standards Council.
