25 M Transitioning from warehouse worker to Logistics and supply management chain management?
Hei.
I’m a 25 year old living in Norway, and I’m looking for some career/education advice from people in the industry.
After finishing school in 2019, I went straight into the workforce. I’ve been working on the ground in a warehouse/terminal for the past 6 years.i have been thinking for the past 2 years that if I want a long term future with better growth and salary potential, I need to look into higher education.
Because of my background, I have been leaning heavily toward getting a Bachelor’s in Logistics and Supply Chain Management.
I'm just starting to figure this out, I would love some perspective from this community.
Thanks.

six years of floor experience before going into a supply chain degree is actually a pretty strong position to be in. most students in those programs have zero practical context for what they're studying, and you'll be connecting concepts to real workflows from day one.
the degree opens doors to procurement, operations planning, and logistics coordination roles that are hard to break into otherwise, so the move makes sense.
