Overview

This accelerated APMG International Better Business Cases™ Practitioner course is provided in conjunction with Creative Consulting and Training Ltd, an APMG accredited training organisation, where you will learn to become a business case professional able to apply the Five Case Model to a real project.

Change initiatives often fail at the first hurdle as the business case fails to convince senior management of the return on investment. Creating effective business cases and spending proposals is therefore critical to securing funding and management buy-in.

At the end of this course, you’ll sit the APMG exam, and achieve your Better Business Cases™ Practitioner certification. Through Firebrand’s Lecture | Lab | Review methodology, you’ll get certified at twice the speed of the traditional training and get access to courseware, learn from certified instructors, and train in a distraction-free environment.

Successful candidates will be entitled to a free Professional Assessment at Business Agility Professional Level 1 – Explorer.
