Retail space is a finite resource per selling location. When an item is placed on a retailer’s shelf or rack, an investment is being made, and a return is expected. The JDA Space Planning education program enables students to make optimal use of space based on consumer behavior and history at each retail location. To demonstrate progression in a user’s skills and competencies using Space Planning, JDA offers two levels of certification:
Space Planner certification (Level 1) Functional User
Space Planning Professional certification (Level 2) Advanced User
Space Planner certification (Level 1) - This certification is designed for the beginning user of Space Planning. It includes a two-hour e-learning module followed by a two-day instructor-led workshop and on-line exam. Students are introduced to or refreshed on basic merchandising concepts, learn how to use product and fixture libraries to develop planograms, and determine product placement while building planograms from scratch. Students learn to review underlying performance data using tables and charts.
Space Planning Professional certification (Level 2) - After achieving Space Planner certification and working with Space Planning for a while, your experience and knowledge can be applied toward Space Planning Professional certification.
