    The Change Management Foundation and Practitioner (CM-F&P) certification is a dual-level qualification that validates your ability to lead the people and culture side of organisational change. Foundation confirms your knowledge of change management concepts, models and approaches, while Practitioner proves you can apply them to real organisational scenarios.

    Run change impact assessments, build complete change management plans and manage resistance in real scenarios. Cover training, capability building and the techniques that embed change so benefits are realised long after go-live.

    General

    What is the Change Management Foundation and Practitioner certification?

    It is a dual-level qualification that validates your ability to manage the people and culture side of organisational change. Foundation confirms your knowledge of change concepts and models, while Practitioner proves you can apply them to real organisational scenarios. Both are aligned to the Change Management Body of Knowledge (CMBoK).

    Who should take this course in Stuttgart?

    It suits project and programme managers, HR business partners, OD practitioners, consultants and leaders who guide or sponsor change. In Stuttgart it is especially relevant for professionals in automotive, engineering, IT and financial services navigating electrification and digital transformation.

    Is Change Management certification worth it in Stuttgart?

    Yes. Change Manager roles in Stuttgart average around EUR 78,000, with senior and transformation roles reaching well beyond EUR 100,000. As Mercedes-Benz, Porsche and Bosch reshape their workforces, certified change practitioners are in strong, growing demand.

    Is the qualification recognised internationally?

    Yes. The Change Management qualification is recognised in over 150 countries and is particularly well respected across the UK, Europe and markets where change management is an established profession, so your credential travels across sectors and regions.

    Do I need prior experience to start?

    No. Foundation has no formal prerequisites and is open to all. To sit the Practitioner exam you must first hold the Foundation certification, and the combined programme takes you through both levels in sequence.

    Pricing

    How much does the training cost in Stuttgart?

    Fees vary by delivery format and schedule, so the current price is available on request. The fee covers instructor-led training, courseware and dual exam preparation. Request a quote or speak with a learning advisor for the latest pricing.

    What is included in the course fee?

    The fee typically includes instructor-led sessions, courseware aligned to the exam syllabi, industry case studies, mock exams and practice questions for both levels, and post-training support. Confirm current inclusions when you enquire.

    Are the exam fees included in the price?

    Exam voucher inclusion varies by package, so please confirm at the time of enrolment. The programme prepares you for two separate exams, Foundation and Practitioner, and our team can clarify exactly what your package covers.

    Do you offer corporate or group discounts?

    Yes. We offer corporate group training with customised schedules and volume-based pricing for PMOs, HR, OD and transformation teams. Ask about corporate or group pricing for a tailored quote for your organisation.

    What payment options are available?

    We accept major cards and bank transfers, and offer instalment options on selected plans. Speak with a learning advisor to choose the option that best suits you or your team.

    Exam

    How many exams are in the combined programme?

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

    What is the format of the Foundation exam?

    The Foundation exam has 50 multiple-choice questions with a single answer each, is closed book, and lasts 40 minutes. The pass mark is 50 percent, which is 25 out of 50 correct.

    What is the format of the Practitioner exam?

    The Practitioner exam is open book, using the Change Management Practitioner Guide. It has 5 scenario-based sections worth 16 marks each, 80 marks in total, over 2.5 hours. The pass mark is 50 percent, which is 40 out of 80 marks.

    What does open book mean for the Practitioner exam?

    The Practitioner Guide is permitted during the exam, but the scenario sections require analysis and judgement, so you cannot simply look up answers. Efficient guide navigation and deep method knowledge are both essential, which our scenario practice builds.

    What if I do not pass on the first attempt?

    You can re-sit an exam if needed. Our training focuses on first-attempt readiness through mock exams and scenario practice, and we guide you on the re-sit process. Confirm the current re-sit policy with our team.

    Course Content

    What models and topics does the course cover?

    The course covers a broad range of change 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.

    What are the five syllabus areas?

    The five areas are Change and the Individual, Change and the Organisation, Communication and Stakeholder Engagement, Change Practice, and Personal and Professional Management. Foundation covers them at knowledge level and Practitioner at application level.

    Which standard or edition is the course based on?

    The programme is aligned to the current Change Management Practitioner Guide and the Change Management Body of Knowledge (CMBoK) published by the Change Management Institute, following the official Foundation and Practitioner exam syllabi.

    Is this course suitable for beginners?

    Yes. Foundation assumes no prior change management knowledge and builds concepts from the ground up. The Practitioner level then develops your ability to apply those concepts, supported by case studies and guided practice throughout.

    What materials are provided?

    You receive courseware aligned to the exam syllabi, industry-driven case studies illustrating change models and stakeholder engagement, and mock exams with practice questions for both the Foundation and Practitioner levels.
