Capita Learning & Development now delivering new project and programme management workshops

Capita L&D are starting to offer CHAMPS2 certification training.

Some of my colleagues were talking yesterday and we figured theres at most 20 CHAMPS2 Practitioners in the world right now, maybe less than a dozen.  Everyone involved in the conversation is in that select group.  Talk about getting in on the ground floor!

CHAMPS2 launch article on Sourcing Focus

Sourcing Focus have published an article on the launch yesterday of the CHAMPS2 accreditation.

There's a good quote from Richard Pharro (Chief Executive, APMG), “Whenever undertaking major transformational change, irrespective of the initial cause of the change, the starting point has to be the clear vision of the difference that will be made to the organisation, and how the delivery of products and/or services will improve. The CHAMPS2 methodology is designed to do just this, systematically taking an organisation through eight defined stages from identifying the strategic need for the change, right through to realising the benefits and achieving the strategic outcome.”

Also got a mention on  Compuiter Weekly Blog Awards 2010 nominee site "The Great E-mancipator".

CHAMPS2 Certification!

I recently took part in the pilot of the CHAMPS2 certification training and examinations.  I found it very much like the PRINCE2 certification and training.  That's probably not surprising as CHAMPS2 is complementary to PRINCE2 and the exam questions are based on the same principles.
