Change Management Overview

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.

The Change Management Institute

The Change Management Institute (CMI) is a global, independent, not-for-profit organisation set up in 2005 to promote and develop the profession of change management.  In response to a need for standards, the CMI launched the Change Management Practitioner Competency Model in 2008. This has been regularly updated every two years. In 2013 CMI published the “The Effective Change Manager / Change Management Body of Knowledge (CMBoK)”. Informed by international research and peer review, the CMBoK describes and defines the knowledge required for a change manager to practise effectively across a wide range of situations. ​
The Effective Change Managers Handbook
APMG commissioned the development of "The Effective Change Managers Handbook".  This handbook is written by a wide range of international experts and this combined knowledge fully covers the “The Effective Change Manager / Change Management Body of Knowledge (CMBoK)” .  "The Effective Change Managers Handbook" is the basis for our training.
