EDUCATION Have you heard the news? CICM Qualifications are changing We are delighted to be launching our new programme of professional qualifications. With a simpler and more flexible structure to help you and your teams find the right level and path to become CICM qualified, we are now offering more flexibility in subject and study methods. SO WHAT’S NEW? SOMETHING FOR EVERYONE AND FLEXIBILITY You can now choose to study a small CICM CPD ‘award’ or unit that you can bank to build up to a full CICM qualification over time, or you can decide to study for a Certificate or Diploma leading to Professional Membership up front. THE RIGHT LEVEL We now have combined Credit & Collections qualifications at three levels: Entry Level – the benchmark for credit controllers, collectors and enforcement agents working in operational roles, with little or no experience in the profession. Intermediate – the benchmark for credit controllers, collectors working in senior operational roles. Advanced – the benchmark for credit and collections management, strategic/managerial level. THE RIGHT CONTENT AND SUBJECTS We are offering you and your teams the opportunity to tailor your qualifications and learning to fit your needs. With a selection of awards or units for each level, you can choose to study the areas that fit your role, business or career aspirations. THE RIGHT STUDY METHODS AND TIME COMMITMENT Whether you want to study in groups, at home or online, we are offer a wide range of study options. I AM STUDYING ALREADY – WHAT SHOULD I DO NOW? Do not worry. If you are part way through your CICM qualification we will move you to the new format automatically if that is the best path for you. You can stay on the current qualification route if this suits you better (if you only have one further unit to pass) and you will have until 2021 to complete the ‘old’ qualification assignments and exams. LOOK IN YOUR INBOX We will be contacting our members soon with more details about the new qualifications and instructions on what to do if you are part way through your CICM qualification.
