    What to expect on exam day

    The Change Management Foundation and Practitioner exams in Kenya assess your understanding of change management principles and your ability to apply them in real-world organizational environments. The Foundation exam focuses on core concepts, terminology, and frameworks through multiple-choice questions, while the Practitioner exam evaluates your ability to analyze scenarios and apply change management techniques to practical business situations. Understanding the structure, duration, and passing requirements of both exams helps candidates prepare effectively and approach certification with confidence.
