    Key Point of This Training Program

    • APMG Change Management Practitioner Prerequisites

      Delegates must have successfully completed the Foundation level qualification (have passed the Foundation exam) and still be familiar with its content. The course will not review Foundation level material but knowledge of it will be assumed for the Practitioner examination.

      Note that delegates will be expected to be fully conversant with the latest Change Management textbook and syllabus - this is especially important if they gained the Foundation qualification using the old textbook (Making Sense of Change Management).

      Pre-Course Reading

      Delegates are provided with access to Ratio's pre-course learning material that will help them prepare for the classroom sessions. The pre-course work is expected to take approximately 5 hours to complete (although delegates may wish to spend longer on this activity to help them prepare more effectively especially if it is some time since they completed their Foundation level examination).
