BRMP® Foundation Qualification: Learning Objectives

Holders of the BRM Institute Business Relationship Management Professional (BRMP®) credentials will be able to demonstrate their understanding of:

Training and Certification Approach

• The course will be delivered over three days, from 8:30am to 4:30pm, with breaks each morning and afternoon (provided), along with lunch (attendees able to leave and purchase at nearby restaurants).

• Upon course completion, participants will be eligible to immediately take the BRMP® exam.  This takes 40 minutes, comprises 50 questions, with a passing grade of 50%.  For those wanting to take the exam at a later time, this can be done at an APMG center or online through the APMG remote proctoring capability (which requires a webcam-enabled computer).

• I will enrich the course with valuable anecdotes from my many years as a BRM, along with time training and consulting in this area.  I will be ready to expand my role from trainer to consultant and/or coach to help your team on your BRM journey, to include leveraging the new Strategic Partnering Approach (SPA) with BRM Institute’s new Playbook.
