Exam vouchers are often included, so confirm current inclusions with a learning advisor. Request a quote for full details.

    Pricing varies by delivery format, schedule and whether exam vouchers are bundled. Instructor-led and corporate options are priced differently, so fees are available on request. Contact a learning advisor for current pricing and any group offers.

    Are the exam fees included in the price?

    Exam vouchers for the Foundation and Practitioner exams are often included in training packages, but this varies by provider and package. Verify whether both exam vouchers are bundled with your enrolment before you book. Ask us for a quote that confirms exactly what is included.

    Exam

    What is the format of the Foundation exam?

    The Foundation exam has 50 multiple-choice questions with a 40-minute duration. It is closed book, and the pass mark is 50% (25 out of 50 correct). It is usually taken at the end of the Foundation portion of the course.

    What is the format of the Practitioner exam?

    The Practitioner exam is open book, with the Change Management Practitioner Guide permitted. It has 5 scenario-based sections, each worth 16 marks (80 marks total), over 2.5 hours. The pass mark is 50% (40 out of 80 marks).

    How many exams are there in the combined programme?

    Two separate exams. You sit the Foundation exam first, then the Practitioner exam. You must pass both to hold both credentials. The programme prepares you for each with mock exams and exam-technique guidance.

    What does open book mean for the Practitioner exam?

    You may use the Change Management Practitioner Guide during the exam. However, the scenario-based sections require analysis and judgment, so you cannot simply look up answers. Efficient navigation of the guide and solid method knowledge are both essential, and the course helps you practise this.

    What if I do not pass an exam the first time?

    You can resit the relevant exam. Our training includes mock exams, practice questions and exam-technique guidance to prepare you thoroughly for both papers. Confirm current resit policies and any retake options with a learning advisor before you book.

    Course Content

    Can a beginner take this course?

    Yes. There are no formal prerequisites for the Foundation level, so beginners are welcome. The programme builds from concepts and models at Foundation level to applied scenarios at Practitioner level, with trainer support throughout, so you do not need prior change management qualifications.

    What topics are covered in the training?

    The training covers five CMBoK topic areas: Change and the Individual, Change and the Organisation, Communication and Stakeholder Engagement, Change Practice, and Personal and Professional Management. Foundation builds knowledge, and Practitioner develops applied skills.

    How long is the training?

    The combined programme is delivered as 40 hours of instructor-led training. The number of days depends on the schedule format, whether full-day intensive or extended part-day sessions, so the total training time stays the same across formats.

    Are practice tests and materials included?

    Yes. The programme includes syllabus-aligned courseware, industry case studies, mock exams and practice questions for both the Foundation and Practitioner levels, plus guidance on open-book exam technique to build your readiness.

    Is the courseware aligned to the current syllabus?

    Yes. The courseware is aligned to the current Change Management Foundation and Practitioner exam syllabi, the Change Management Body of Knowledge (CMBoK) and the current edition of the Change Management Practitioner Guide.

    Enrollment

    How soon can I start and how do I enrol?

    You can enrol through the Invensis Learning website. Choose your preferred format, complete payment, and you will receive access to schedules, courseware and learning resources. See upcoming batches or talk to a learning advisor to pick a start date that suits you.

    What training formats are available in Leeds?

    We offer online (live virtual) instructor-led training, classroom sessions, and customised corporate group training for teams in Leeds. You can choose the format that fits your schedule and learning preference.

    What are the prerequisites to enrol?

    None for the Foundation level, which is open to all. The Practitioner level assumes Foundation knowledge, which this combined programme provides, so you can progress through both levels in one course.

    Can I reschedule or transfer my enrolment?

    Yes. Flexi options let you reschedule or transfer to another batch on selected plans. Contact support to arrange this and confirm the terms that apply to your enrolment.

    What is the refund or cancellation policy?

    Refunds and cancellations are handled per our published policy, and selected plans include added flexibility. Reach out to our team for the details that apply to your enrolment before you book.
