For this edition of our Member News, we will talk about some news we have heard from Green Worldwide Shipping LLC, our member from the United States. The freight forwarding business is a privately owned and independent company founded on the basic principles of respect, dedication, and best-in-class customer service. Their mission is to listen and understand each of their customers’ needs, building long-term relationships with them by providing outstanding logistics solutions and efficient personal contact.

Green Worldwide Shipping is pleased to support and participate in the Harper College Apprenticeship Program. The program offers an educational opportunity that goes well beyond the classroom, allowing potential student candidates to receive real-life experience as well as tuition support and a steady income while earning their certification.

Several programs are offered through Harper College including Logistics and Supply Chain Management.  The candidates participate in a challenging course study two days a week with the balance of their time in the office putting what they learn to work. Green Worldwide is very pleased that Harper College has decided to include this course into their curriculum, and believes it will allow the next generation of supply chain professionals a unique opportunity of learning about trade and developing their skills since an early age; something that most professionals in the area haven’t gotten to experience.

This program is a testament to the strength, importance, and growth of the supply chain industry.   By participating, Green Worldwide is giving back to the community and gaining an employee who will be educated under the joint culture of Harper College and Green Worldwide.

Through the Apprenticeship Program, Green Worldwide Shipping team has met with several qualified candidates and are pleased to have Travis Collins join their team in Chicago. The company is looking forward to helping him grow in his knowledge and experience and become another “long-timer” with Green Worldwide providing superior customer service to our growing client base.
