Duration 2 Days 12 CPD hours This course is intended for CxO?s IT Managers/ Directors Senior Project Officers Project & Program Coordinator/Managers Operations Managers Quality Managers Business Analysts Engineering Managers IT Infrastructure Managers Internal Consultants Professional Consultants Overview The purpose of the Practitioner certification is to confirm whether the candidate has achieved sufficient know-how to apply and tailor Change Management guidance in a given organizational change situation. A successful Practitioner candidate should, with suitable direction, be able to start applying the Change Management approaches and techniques to a real change initiative - but may not be sufficiently skilled to do this appropriately for all situations. Their individual Change Management expertise, complexity of the change initiative and the support provided for the use of Change Management approaches in their work environment will all be factors that impact what the Practitioner can achieve. Successful candidates will have fulfilled the knowledge requirements for Change Management Institute accreditation. Dealing with change and more importantly, the impact of change is a high priority for all organizations. The Change Management Certification has been developed by APMG in partnership with the Change Management Institute (CMI), an independent, global professional association of change managers. Together they have developed a professional ?body of knowledge? for the discipline of change management. This body of knowledge now provides an independent benchmark for the professional knowledge expected of an effective change manager. APMG?s refreshed Change Management certification is fully aligned with the change management body of knowledge. Prerequisites The change management foundation certificate is required to sit the practitioner level exam. 1 - Change Impact Levers for change Levels of adoptions and critical mass Reinforcing systems 2 - Exam Preparation Change Management Practitioner exam preparation Change Management Practitioner exam
