APMG Change Management ™ Foundation & Practitioner - eLearning (Exam Included)

The leading Change Management certification for professionals working in organizational change, transition and transformation.

Our Change Management courses, developed in partnership with the Change Management Institute, are designed to help organizations and their people manage the impact of change. They provide techniques to effectively plan and implement successful transformation initiatives.

In the modern business environment, change is relentless. This can be a challenge, but it also presents opportunities. By managing change effectively, organizations can improve their performance and achieve their goals.

Understanding the impact of change is crucial to managing it. Change can create either positive or negative outcomes. It can lead to increased productivity, improved morale and new opportunities, but it can also cause stress, anxiety and resistance.

Our Change Management training explores how change affects and is affected by individuals, teams, change leaders and organizations.

APMG accredited change management courses provide individuals with the knowledge, proven methods and techniques to:
