CMP Exam Prep
CMP Exam Prep Certificate OD
COURSE OVERVIEW
Earning the Events Industry Council’s Certified Meeting Planner designation showcases your industry expertise to employers and clients and enhances prestige among peers. However, with the last standardized exam in the rearview mirror for many, navigating the CMP-International Standards (CMP-IS) and related study material can be intimidating.
This course from the long-time leaders in professional development and online education is designed to provide you with the strategies, resources, and knowledge to be successful when sitting for the CMP exam.
With self-paced learning, an online practice exam, and 1 year of on-demand access, ELI’s CMP Exam Prep Course provides comprehensive support for your entire CMP certification journey. However, taking or completing this course does not guarantee passing the CMP Exam.
This on-demand course includes all the same materials as our live course with the exception of live engagement opportunities with your instructor and peers. To learn more about the live CMP Exam Prep Course, check out our page here. The course is taught by Carolyn Browning, CMP, CMM, HMCC, who has helped hundreds identify and address knowledge and skills gaps, develop a personal learning plan, and prepare for the exam.
