First, Is the Prosci ANZ Certification Popular? If so, Why?

Although there are several different Australia and NZ change management certifications to choose from, one reason why Prosci change management certification in Australia and New Zealand has become so popular is that it is based on over 20 years of detailed organizational change management studies, involving how individuals go through a change within an organization.

As stated by Prosci Australia (ANZ):

“Over the last two-decades, Prosci has studied organizational change implementations, noting what worked and what didn’t work, and why. In the process, we established the Prosci methodology and processes for practitioners to effectively implement successful change. We created repeatable, effective methods for managing the people side of change. Our Prosci change management courses and training programs come from this best practice research based on the experience of thousands of practitioners.”

Prosci claims that it has provided training to over 70,000 individuals who have become certified in the Prosci change management methodologies.
