Looking to further you or your team’s category management knowledge or build skills in multi-unit leadership? NACS offers two advanced courses that can be completed while in Chicago on day one of the NACS Show.

Category Management Certification

Earn the NACS Certified Convenience Advanced Category Management Certification (CCACM) through the completion of a hands-on education session at the 2021 NACS Show. Comprised of key strategic planning and analytical skill-building programs, the six-hour interactive workshop is tailored for experienced category management and merchandising professionals from retailers and suppliers in the convenience and fuel retailing channel.

Completion of the online NACS Certified Convenience Category Manager (CCCM) course prior to this event is strongly encouraged since this advanced program is designed for people who already have an understanding of basic category management principles.

Drawing on the fundamentals included in the online NACS Advanced Category Management curriculum, this in-person workshop will incorporate industry data and offer collaborative work sessions designed for maximum learning and retention.

Upon completion, each participant will earn a CCACM certificate from NACS and Impact 21.

Multi-Unit Leadership

Author Jim Sullivan brings the principles from his bestselling book, Multi-Unit Leadership: The 7 Stages of Building Profitable Stores, to the NACS Show for a one-day workshop to help retail c-store managers build the needed skills to transition to multi-unit leaders.

In this six-hour interactive workshop, Sullivan addresses one of the most challenging transitions in a store leader’s career: the move from single-store manager to multi-store manager.

Attendees should read the book Multi-Unit Leadership: The 7 Stages of Building Profitable Stores, which will be provided to all registrants prior to the workshop.
