Course Summary:

The energy sector is changing rapidly as disruptive technologies, evolving customer expectations, and new market entrants drive transformational change. LDCs increasingly require leaders who can manage and guide teams through complex, regulated environments using structured and effective change management approaches. Delivered in partnership with TidalShift and APMG International, this program enables participants to earn the internationally recognized Change Management Practitioner™ (CMP) designation.

The program is designed to build both foundational knowledge and applied skills for leading and sustaining organizational change. The electronic course textbook, The Effective Change Manager's Handbook, is provided in advance and mandatory pre-reading is required prior to the session. Daily homework assignments and practice exams are included. Participants complete two exams: the APMG Change Management Foundation exam following the first block of sessions, and the APMG Change Management Practitioner exam at the end of the course.
