Change Management Foundation Certification Prep (APMG)

About This Course:

The benefits of effective change management are considerable, both for organizations and the people in them. The costs of poor change management are equally compelling. 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 which provides an independent benchmark for the professional knowledge expected of an effective change manager.
