Introducing The TEDD Academy – Your New Destination For Supply Chain Due Diligence Training

VECTRA International, a leading global responsible business consultancy firm headquartered in Belgium, gladly announces the launch of the TEDD Academy, a first-of-its-kind supply chain due diligence training platform for global organizations. The TEDD Academy is the first element of the VECTRA Campus, which is being built and which will provide various elements for companies to establish, develop and grow their responsible business practices.

In today’s ever-evolving global marketplace, the TEDD Academy is the one-stop destination for companies seeking training on supply chain due diligence.

Supply Chain Due Diligence is a crucial aspect of doing business successfully. It is an essential element for managing risks in any organization. In addition, it has become a must to safeguard the business in or with a country that already has or works on Human Rights and Environmental Due Diligence legislation such as Germany, Norway, Switzerland, the UK, or the United States, just to name a few. And as legal requirements on Due Diligence are passed on to business partners, also many mid-sized and smaller companies must increasingly work on managing risks, especially in the sustainability area.

The TEDD Academy as part of the VECTRA Campus is designed to equip companies, both large and small, with the knowledge necessary to effectively manage their supply chain due diligence. The first online recorded training elements cover the basics of due diligence, e.g. an overview of due diligence elements, or conducting a risk analysis. More training modules will be added in different languages on a continuous basis, therefore companies are invited to visit the Academy regularly for more courses.

“At VECTRA, we understand the importance of responsible supply chain management, and we believe that effective training is the key to achieving this goal,” said Lorenz Berzau, Head of Operations, VECTRA International. “We are excited to launch the TEDD Academy as the first element of the VECTRA Campus and offer our expertise to companies across Europe, as well as key supplier markets for Europe such as Turkey, India, Bangladesh, and China.”

With the continuously growing TEDD Academy, companies will be able to access robust recorded training modules in the beginning, online live training sessions in the future, as well as different levels of training based on maturity levels, and specific aspects relevant to different regions of the world and industries.

The VECTRA Campus, whose spectrum and depth will grow over time, aims at providing companies with an invaluable resource for effectively managing responsible business topics.
