What is Change Management?

There are many definitions of change management. We consider it to be:-

• the process, tools and techniques to manage the people side of changing systems, structures and behaviours.
• achieving the required outcomes.
• realising the change effectively within individuals, teams and organisations.
• a growing body of knowledge about the problems inherent in managing change and how to avoid or manage the issues.

 

What is this Qualification?

The Principles of Change Management Qualification is a new qualification from the APM Group (APMG)

• The APMG is the UK based organisation that administers the standards and qualifications for PRINCE2™ (a standard for project delivery)and ITIL® (a standard for service delivery). These are two internationally recognized standards.
• In 2006, APMG developed the Principles of Change Management qualification around Making Sense of Change Management by Cameron and Green.
• The assessment is a one hour multiple choice exam.
• Just as with ITIL® and PRINCE2™, organisations, course material and trainers are assessed and accredited by the APMG.

 

Why is Change Management important?

Recent surveys have shown that projects that do use Change Management have a four times higher return on investment. than projects that don't use Change Management.
