The CX Certification Journey
Each course in the CX Certification program includes five to seven competency-based modules. There are two levels of coursework to help you align your team and advance their learning:
The Core course is an eight-week cohort-based session that is facilitated. Core course completion is a prerequisite for any advanced CX course.
Advanced courses provide 90 days to complete a series of self-paced modules that go deeper into specific topic areas. Advanced courses can be taken in any order to provide flexibility and prioritize critical business needs.
Complete all four courses to gain masterful expertise and get the most value from your CX Certification journey:
Two tracks in the core course support different roles, although both tracks cover the same course content.
- Professionals represent your core CX team and provide recognition for experience and expertise. The Professional certification requires two years of prior CX work experience and the completion of additional course content.
- Champions support CX execution through cross-functional alignment and shared understanding of concepts. Staff new to the CX role, CX supervisors, and stakeholder roles from across the organization — marketing, product, IT, and more — benefit from Champion certification.
The CX Management course was very in-depth. I was able to put the knowledge into practice immediately and share with other teams.
