Introducing Professional Practice credentials
Credentialling is different from other kinds of study you may have completed. It’s not about attending lectures or taking in new information. It’s about credit for the leadership techniques you’ve already developed and applied within your field or industry. It’s also about deepening those capabilities through a process of constructive self-analysis, understanding where you are in your career and where you want to go.
Credentials are designed to be completed between work and other commitments, and you can work on them at any time throughout the year.
To earn a credential, you’ll go through a six-step process to identify and document your skills, experience and knowledge. Each credential assesses a capability that’s highly valued in leaders, such as adaptive mindsets and driving strategic results.
