Inventory Control and Warehouse Management Training in Dubai, UAE
Classroom training in Dubai · next cohort Oct 26, 2026 · from USD 3,800
Stockouts halt operations, while excess or poorly tracked stock ties up cash, invites theft and spoils on the shelf. The week builds the foundations: types of inventory, holding and ordering costs, and the controls that keep records matching what is physically on hand. You will practise recording receipts, issues and returns with stock cards, bin cards and simple inventory software, and learn item coding, labelling and FIFO and FEFO principles. Warehouse sessions cover layout and slotting, safe storage, receiving and dispatch procedures and good housekeeping.
Midweek you set reorder levels, safety stock and economic order quantities and apply ABC analysis to focus attention on high-value items. You will then plan cycle counts and annual stock-takes, investigate variances and produce useful reports on stock levels, ageing and turnover. Storekeepers, stores clerks, warehouse supervisors, procurement assistants and administrators who manage supplies in hospitals, schools, government offices, NGOs and businesses will find it practical. Afterwards you can keep accurate stock records, organise a store efficiently and report on inventory in a way that supports purchasing decisions.
