The Problem:

Years of Training Industry research indicates that many people in charge of training and development do not have all the necessary knowledge and skills to get the most out of an organization’s training investment.

A well-equipped training manager can be the difference between delivering training programs that waste time and money and delivering training programs that are strategically aligned with business goals, propelling your organization forward.

So, how can you be confident that you’re hiring training managers with the knowledge they need to succeed in leveraging learning for business results? By hiring a Certified Professional in Training Management (CPTM).

The Solution:

The CPTM credential validates that training managers have the core competencies needed to manage all the necessary processes for training success, from content development and delivery to managing learning technologies. CPTMs also have exclusive access to tools, job aids and more resources related to industry trends and best practices across multiple aspects of training management. Along with gaining an essential foundational knowledge, CPTMs hone their business acumen skills and understand the importance of strategically aligning training to organizational goals.

Why it Works:

Aspiring CPTMs undergo a rigorous three-step certification process to guarantee thorough, deeply engrained training manager competencies. Starting with a series of comprehensive eLearning modules, CPTMs then complete a hands-on live practicum to test their ability to apply their newly acquired knowledge. The final step requires CPTMs to pass a 100-question exam geared at assessing content knowledge and application.

Finally, because the learning and development (L&D) landscape is constantly changing, CPTMs are required to engage in continuing education and apply for recertification every two years. This ensures active CPTM alumni are up-to-date and aware of all the L&D latest trends.
