Are you a management consultant or firm looking to differentiate yourself and inspire client trust and confidence?
The award has been created in a joint partnership between the Management Consultancies Association (MCA), the trade association for the UK’s leading consulting firms and Chartered Management Institute (CMI), which was appointed by the Privy Council as the Awarding Body. Supported and managed by both CMI and MCA ensures that Chartered status is relevant to both the individual and industry, and provides a benchmark for career excellence for management consultants to aspire towards.
In partnership with:
Competency framework
The ChMC award sets and maintains the highest standards for the management consulting profession. Central to this is the award's competency framework which sets the standards for both you as an individual consultant and your organisation's training and development programme.
Accreditation
Having your training programme benchmarked against a professional standard enables you to attract the best talent and deliver a clear development and career path for them, and also provides recognition for experienced consultants. Through this benchmarked standard, your clients will benefit from the latest capabilities and competencies to meet their objectives.
The opportunity that the Chartered award has brought has acted as a catalyst to evolve our learning programme into an inspiring growth and development journey that is aligned to the competency framework. The Chartered award is a positive differentiator.
