Certified change professionals earn strong salaries, with change consultant roles averaging around $144K, and the credential is recognized across the US and 150-plus countries.

    General

    Is the Change Management certification worth it in Denver?

    Yes. Change management is a core need across Denver's aerospace, healthcare, financial services and technology employers, all of which are restructuring and going digital. Certified change professionals earn strong salaries, with change consultant roles averaging around $144K, and the credential is recognized across the US and 150-plus countries.

    What is the Change Management Foundation and Practitioner certification?

    It is a combined, two-level qualification for managing the people and culture side of organizational change. Foundation validates knowledge of change concepts and models, while Practitioner validates your ability to apply them to realistic scenarios. Both are grounded in the Change Management Body of Knowledge (CMBoK).

    Who should take this change management course?

    It suits project managers, HR business partners, consultants, OD practitioners and leaders who guide organizational change. Foundation has no prerequisites and is open to all, so it works for both newcomers and experienced professionals adding formal change skills.

    What change models does the syllabus cover?

    The syllabus covers a broad range of models, including ADKAR, Bridges' Transition Model, Lewin's Three-Step Model, Kotter's 8-Step Model, the McKinsey 7-S Framework, Schein's culture model, Goleman's emotional intelligence and Cialdini's principles of influence.

    How does this credential complement project management?

    Change management covers the people side of change: stakeholder engagement, communication, resistance and embedding, which project frameworks like PRINCE2 do not cover in depth. Together they give you a complete toolkit for delivering both the technical and human sides of change.

    Pricing

    How much does the change management training cost in Denver?

    Training fees vary by delivery format and schedule, so pricing is available on request in USD. The fee typically bundles the combined training and both exam vouchers. Contact a learning advisor for a current quote for Denver.

    What is included in the course fee?

    The fee typically includes the 40-hour combined training, aligned courseware, industry case studies, Foundation and Practitioner mock exams and practice questions, both exam vouchers, and learner support. Confirm current inclusions with our team.

    Are the exam fees included in the price?

    Both the Foundation and Practitioner exam vouchers are usually included in the combined training package. Because inclusions can vary by plan, confirm the exact package details when you request your quote.

    Do you offer group or corporate pricing?

    Yes. We offer corporate group training with customized schedules and volume-based pricing for teams, PMOs and leadership groups across Denver. Ask about corporate or group pricing for a tailored quote.

    What payment options are available?

    We accept major credit and debit cards and bank transfers, and offer installment options on selected plans. Speak with a learning advisor to choose the option that suits you.

    Exam

    What is the format of the two exams?

    The Foundation exam is closed book with 50 multiple-choice questions in 40 minutes; the pass mark is 50%, or 25 out of 50. The Practitioner exam is open book with 5 scenario-based sections worth 16 marks each, 80 marks total, over 2.5 hours; the pass mark is 50%, or 40 out of 80.

    How many exams are in the combined program?

    There are two separate exams. You must sit and pass both the Foundation and the Practitioner exam to hold both credentials. Foundation is typically taken first, followed by the Practitioner exam.

    What are the prerequisites for each exam?

    Foundation has no formal prerequisites and is open to all. The Practitioner exam requires Change Management Foundation certification, or an accepted equivalent, before you can sit it.

    What does open book mean for the Practitioner exam?

    You may use the Change Management Practitioner Guide during the Practitioner exam. However, the scenario-based sections require analysis and judgment, so you cannot simply look up answers. Efficient guide navigation and deep method knowledge are both essential.

    What standard are the exams based on?

    Both exams are based on the current Change Management Foundation and Practitioner exam syllabi and the Change Management Practitioner Guide, aligned to the Change Management Body of Knowledge (CMBoK) maintained by the Change Management Institute.

    Course Content

    What will I learn in the change management course?

    You will learn to guide individuals through change, lead organizational change, engage stakeholders, plan and embed change, and apply the professional and ethical practices of a change manager. The program spans the five topic areas of the Change Management syllabus at both levels.

    What are the five topic areas of the syllabus?

    They are Change and the Individual, Change and the Organization, Communication and Stakeholder Engagement, Change Practice, and Personal and Professional Management. Foundation covers them at knowledge level and Practitioner at application and analysis level.

    Are practice tests and mock exams included?

    Yes. The program includes Foundation and Practitioner practice questions and mock exams, plus industry case studies, so you can identify weak areas and build readiness for both the closed-book and open-book exams.

    Do I need prior experience to take this course?

    No. Change Management Foundation is open to all with no formal prerequisites, so beginners can start here. Experienced project and HR professionals also benefit by formalizing their change skills with a recognized credential.

    How long is the training?

    The combined Change Management Foundation and Practitioner program is a 40-hour course. The number of training days varies with the daily schedule, so it can run as an intensive block or across extended part-time sessions.
