    General

    What is the Change Management Foundation and Practitioner certification?

    It is a globally recognised, two-level qualification covering the knowledge, models and practices needed to manage the people side of organisational change. Foundation validates your understanding of change concepts, while Practitioner proves you can apply them to real scenarios. It is governed by the Change Management Institute and the Agile Business Consortium and built on the CMBoK.

    Who should take this course in Gurgaon?

    It suits change managers, project and programme managers, HR and OD professionals, consultants and senior leaders who lead or support organisational change. In Gurgaon, consulting firms, GCCs, BFSI and manufacturing employers all value certified change professionals.

    Is the Change Management certification worth it?

    Yes. Change management is now a core capability, and certified professionals are in steady demand across Gurgaon's transformation-heavy employers. Change Manager roles in India average around 21 lakh per year, with transformation leadership paying far higher, so the credential supports both career growth and earning potential.

    Are there prerequisites for the Foundation level?

    No. Change Management Foundation has no formal prerequisites and is open to everyone, regardless of education, experience or prior change knowledge. The Practitioner level requires you to hold the Foundation certification first.

    Is the qualification recognised internationally?

    Yes. The Change Management qualification is recognised in over 150 countries and is particularly well respected where organisational change is an established discipline. It travels with you across sectors, employers and geographies.

    Pricing

    What is included in the CM-F&P course fee?

    Your training typically includes CMBoK-aligned courseware, case studies, mock questions for both levels and learner support, with dual exam voucher inclusion confirmed at enrolment. Fees are quoted in INR and vary by format. Request a quote for the current price.

    How much does Change Management training cost in Gurgaon?

    Pricing is available on request and is quoted in INR, as it varies by delivery format and schedule. Speak with a learning advisor for a tailored quote for the format that suits you.

    Are the exam fees included in the training price?

    Exam voucher inclusion varies by package, so confirm it at enrolment. Where exam fees are billed separately, our team will explain the current amounts. Ask a learning advisor to clarify what your chosen plan covers.

    Do you offer group or corporate discounts?

    Yes. We offer corporate group training with customised schedules and volume-based pricing for PMO, HR, OD and transformation teams. Contact us for a tailored group quote for your organisation in Gurgaon.

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

    Exam

    How many exams are in the combined programme?

    There are two separate exams. Foundation has 50 multiple-choice questions in 40 minutes, closed book, with a 50% pass mark (25 out of 50). Practitioner has 5 scenario-based sections worth 16 marks each (80 total) in 2.5 hours, open book, with a 50% pass mark (40 out of 80). You must pass both to hold both credentials.

    What does open book mean for the Practitioner exam?

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

    What is the passing score for each exam?

    Both exams require 50% to pass. Foundation needs 25 out of 50 questions correct, and Practitioner needs 40 out of 80 marks across its five sections. Focus on broad mastery of all five topic areas.

    Which standard is the exam based on?

    The exams align to the Change Management Body of Knowledge (CMBoK) maintained by the Change Management Institute, the current Change Management Practitioner Guide, and the Foundation and Practitioner exam syllabi. Our courseware follows these current versions.

    How is the exam delivered and can I retake it?

    Both exams are delivered via online proctoring or at an authorised test centre, usually at the end of each stage of training. If you do not pass first time, our trainers provide retake guidance and support to help you prepare again.

    Course Content

    What topics does the CM-F&P training cover?

    The training covers five topic areas: Change and the Individual, Change and the Organisation, Communication and Stakeholder Engagement, Change Practice, and Personal and Professional Management. Foundation builds knowledge; Practitioner develops application to real scenarios.

    Which change models and theories will I learn?

    You will study 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.

    Can a beginner take this course?

    Yes. Foundation has no prerequisites and is beginner-friendly, so you can start even without prior change experience. The training builds from core concepts up to Practitioner-level application, with trainer support throughout.

    What learning materials are provided?

    You receive CMBoK-aligned courseware, industry-driven case studies illustrating change models and stakeholder engagement, mock questions for both levels, and reference materials to prepare for the Foundation and Practitioner exams.

    Is the courseware aligned to the current syllabus?

    Yes. The courseware is aligned to the CMBoK, the current Change Management Practitioner Guide and the current Foundation and Practitioner exam syllabi, so you prepare against the material the exams actually test.
