Our Founder and a Professor of Packaging Science at Clemson University, Dr. Andrew Hurley, recently wrote in an edition of BoxScore by AICC, where he discusses why the world needs more packaging managers—individuals who understand the supply chain and business acumen of packaging and can communicate the value that our products provide to brands and stakeholders.
Dr. Hurley stated:
There is a tremendous need—33,000 packaging manager positions and more than 100,000 other packaging jobs are posted on Indeed.com right now.
The Packaging School has partnered with Clemson University's Center for Corporate Learning to provide a unique solution to this industry need.
