Get APMP certified!
APMP offers the world’s first Professional Certification Program for those working in a bid and proposal environment. The Program uses a process of examination and competency-based assessment, which is consistent and measured against worldwide best practice standards. With the Certification Program, employers provide their employees world-class bid and proposal management know-how, and they improve process quality.
Signature Certification
There are three levels. Participants start at Foundation and advance to Practitioner, and then to Professional. Each level is tested in a different way, requires a minimum level of experience, and verification with a self-selected reference.
The Capture Practitioner (CAP APMP) is dedicated for opportunity/capture professionals.
Micro-Certification
As opposed to the Signature Certification Scheme (Foundation, Practitioner, Professional, and Capture Practitioner) that is designed to cover the entire spectrum of Bid and Proposal Managers’ tasks, each Micro-Certification is focused on a single topic.
So, APMP’s Micro-Certifications are targeted at all those who deal with this topic, whether or not they are Bid or Proposal Managers.
