Pink Elephant launched the Organisational Change Management (OCM) Certification Program, offered at both the Foundation and Practitioner levels.
“There are many facets of change in every organisation, but often they are not dealt with effectively because leaders often overlook the most important aspect of change: the people,” says Neil Petford, regional director of Pink Elephant. “The Organisational Change Management Certification Program has been developed specifically to provide the tools to initiate, manage and sustain change.”
The new program will cover the “people side of change” and the content includes many aspects of managing and leading organisational development.
The Foundation course prepares leaders and managers for planning and implementing change initiatives; the Practitioner course takes this knowledge and applies it to “real world” change processes through case scenarios. Participants who successfully pass both the Foundation and Practitioner examinations will receive a Change Management Registered Practitioner designation through APMG-International.
Participants also have the option to work towards a Change Management professional designation through either ACMP (Association of Change Management Professionals) or CMI (Change Management Institute). These designations are granted based on members training and hands-on experience leading and managing change initiatives.
