Abstract
The focus of this paper is to adopt an interdisciplinary approach of the education system’s strategic planning process, by drawing insights and critically evaluating the possibility of applying a mechanistic view of the work force development inspired from the vast and numerous literature of supply chain management. The outcome of the study is a proposed high-level reference model for Human Supply Chain (HSC) integration.
