Course Overview
Why study this course?
Change comes about in various forms within organisations due to many factors including projects, team restructuring, business analysis identifying different ways of working, company mergers, and outsourcing. No matter how big or small, they all need to be facilitated with Change Management to ensure a successful result.
The purpose of the Change Management Foundation qualification is to confirm that a candidate has sufficient knowledge and understanding of Change Management to work as an informed member of a team working on an organisational change initiative. The Foundation qualification is also a pre-requisite for the Practitioner qualification.
The Change Management 2015 (Foundation and Practitioner) qualification is designed to provide a robust foundation of knowledge for anyone involved in organisational change initiatives. Upon completion of this combined qualification, students will have the knowledge and understanding necessary to contribute constructively to teams specifying, developing, implementing and sustaining change initiatives.
Who's It For?
This qualification is aimed at individuals who are involved in change initiatives, requiring a working knowledge of the key principles of change management. It will significantly help those who need to know the terminology used and some of the theories behind the practice.
It is also the introduction to the higher level practitioner qualification and therefore includes all those who are the target audience for that qualification.
