Useful. It’s like 2 1/2 days and definitely worth taking if free.

Moderately useful from an execution perspective. If you are an experienced change management person you won’t learn much new, but if you are trying to “break in” to OCM it’s the only cert most employers have heard of. Good for you getting it paid for! I’ve been trying to get an employer to do that for 10 years.

Good to have as purely foundational knowledge—and clients like to see you have it as an extra qualification for you doing the work in their eyes. Takes years of actual work experience to consider yourself a skilled change practitioner though—with or without the certification.

Anyone know if D will pay for this?

Former D here. Typically no, but I saw one strategy work: Get your current client to tell your account lead that they will require it for all their internal and external change resources after a certain date. Be sure they also include how much they LOVE you and would rather keep you than swap out for someone else. A little risky, but as I said I’ve seen it work there at least once.

I am looking into the CCP (Certified Compensation Professional). It seems to be quite an expensive exam.

If anyone else is studying, let me know and maybe we can share study materials!

For those who have taken it, are there any cheaper or alternative study materials to any official guides you would recommend? I went this route with the PHR and SHRM-SCP and passed each on the both try, so I wanted to see if that method may be viable here. Any recommended order to take courses in?
