Change Management Foundation & Practitioner Certification

Code:
ORGS 1984

Learn the professional knowledge expected of an effective change manager.

Dealing effectively with change is a high priority for organizations today. The APMG-International Change Management™ Certification has been developed by APMG in partnership with the Change Management Institute (CMI), an independent, global professional association of change managers. They have developed a professional "body of knowledge'' for the discipline of change management, which provides an independent benchmark for the professional knowledge expected of an effective change manager.

Change Management Foundation and Practitioner levels present the latest knowledge theory and best practices in effective change management along with professional certification.

  • Value the human side of change and know how to help people deal effectively with change.
  • Identify and work with the stakeholders in a change initiative, and know how to plan, execute and measure the effectiveness of communications.
  • Assess the impacts of change, to develop effective change teams and to recognize and address resistance to change.
  • Understand the process of sustaining change and know how to embed a change initiative as the new "business as usual''.
