What’s Inside?

Institute of Certified Professional Managers Spring 2012

The familiar adage ―nothing is constant in the world except change‖

could not be more true for ICPM. Already in 2012, ICPM has imple-

mented changes in staffing and, in accordance with ICPM’s 2011 Job

Task Analysis, it is initiating changes to ICPM’s professional standards

and learning programs. More details about these changes follow . . .

Jonathan Scott Lutz, MET joined the ICPM

staff in January in the role of Instructional De-

signer. Jonathan’s experience in technology sys-

tems, applications, and implementation, teamed

with his education in multimedia, web design and

educational technology are well suited to his first

assignment—to develop and administer a new line

of eLearning programs for ICPM. You can contact

Jonathan at 540-568-4571 or [email protected].

Kimberley Foreman, MSA, CPA assumed the

position of JMU/ICPM Liaison as of April 1st.

Kimberley is the Associate Dean for Human Re-

sources & Administration in the JMU College of

Business and a former lecturer for the JMU

School of Accounting. Her 15-year longevity with

JMU will enable her to manage the JMU/ICPM

relationship. Kim is a JMU alumnus with under-

graduate and graduate degrees in Accounting.

Lynn S. Powell, CM, MBA, former ICPM Di-

rector, assumed the position of Executive Director

on October 1st, replacing Dr. Robert Reid. Lynn

has served as ICPM’s Director for over 10 years

and brings over 30 years of administrative man-

agement and program development experience to

the job. Lynn is a JMU alumnus. You can contact

Lynn at 540-568-3042 or [email protected].

The Certified Letter Page 2

Professional standards for certification originate

from a Job Task Analysis (JTA). Essentially, a

JTA is a search for truth. It is a systematic and

comprehensive study that seeks to determine the

tasks that members of a profession perform and

the corresponding skills and abilities required to

perform the profession competently. Certifying

bodies, like ICPM, use the results of JTA studies to

set standards for the profession and develop certifi-

cation exams and related learning programs.

ICPM has completed three JTA studies for the management profession since the year 2000.

The most recent analysis was completed in July 2011 with the assistance of The Caviart

Group, LLC, specialists in the development and administration of certification testing, and a

diverse team of management subject matter experts (see photo above).

A total of 1,100 management professionals, including many Certified Managers, participated

in the 2011 study, in which survey respondents rated the relevance and importance of nearly

200 managerial tasks, skills and abilities. The results of the study presented a number of

changes to CM certification standards, which are being used to revise the CM exams.

The JTA process is in keeping with ICPM’s mission of enhancing the competency and profes-

sionalism of managers through certification. ICPM looks forward to sharing more details

about the rollout of new exams and related learning products in the months ahead via the

ICPM website, Management World and The Certified Letter. Stay tuned!

Changes in Professional Standards

Changes in Learning Programs

The 2011 JTA also precipitated changes to

ICPM’s learning programs, which will take

the form of an all new eLearning system and

eLearning programs. Both the rising popular-

ity of eLearning in education over the past

several years and the benefits of eLearning ,

make it the format of choice for busy manag-

ers. A few of the benefits include:

Self-paced learning. Learners are able to

view content at their own pace, meaning the

learner can easily navigate through content at

a pace that is appropriate for them. In an

eLearning environment instruction is never

too fast or too slow, the pace is determined by

the learner based on his/her own comfort lev-

el.

Self-directed learning. In eLearning, the

learner is able to move through the training

freely. Learners are given the option to

choose modules or topics in any sequence.

This allows learners to focus on topics that

are most important to them and to review

previously completed modules or topics., as

needed.

10:20 AM4/20/2012 4/20/201233


Learning Engagement. Every learner has a

different learning style, and eLearning caters

to a variety of styles through the use of text,

graphics, sound, animation, and interactivity.

Learners who struggle with training in a tradi-

tional classroom, often find eLearning leads to

increased retention and comprehension due

to increased learning engagement.

Flexibility. One of the most notable benefits

of eLearning is the ease and speed of access

for the learner. Learners can get started im-

mediately after purchasing a course without

waiting for shipped materials to arrive. In ad-

dition, the eLearning system can be accessed

any time of day and from any location using a

computer or tablet with an internet connec-

tion. This provides learners with the oppor-

tunity to engage in learning whenever and

wherever it is most convenient for them.

While there are a number of benefits associat-

ed with eLearning, the main goals of the ICPM

eLearning system are convenience and en-

gagement. 24/7 access to ICPM’s eLearning

system will make it convenient for applicants

to learn in a flexible format and at locations

that allow them to be most productive. The

multi-media based content will support a high

level of engagement and facilitate retention.

Stay tuned for more details on ICPM’s eLearn-

ing system as programs are rolled out in 2012

and 2013.

II. From the Executive Director, Lynn S. Powell, CM

Happy Spring!

Where has the first quar-

ter of 2012 gone? And,

what is on the horizon

for the remaining quar-

ters of 2012?

With so much to tell, one

thing is certain; ICPM is

not standing still! In fact, CM recognition has

gone viral with CM certificants now in over

60 countries worldwide.

Additionally, new certification exams and

eLearning programs are in progress to rollout

in 2012 and 2013, supported by an all new

LMS and test engine, currently under de-

velopment. New staff members are bringing

forth new ideas and energy to ICPM. And, a

new 5-year strategic plan will get underway in

June when the ICPM Board of Regents meets

in Northern, Virginia, USA.

Despite global economic volatility, interest in

the CM certification continues to be strong—

both domestically and internationally. CM

expansion in Africa and Indonesia is

beginning to take hold, while CM certification

in the Middle East has become a permanent

fixture of corporate professional development

programs.

Thanks to social media, ICPM’s CM Group

on Linkedin has surpassed 12,750 mem-

bers, reaching out to all North American

states, India, UK, China, Canada, Saudi Ara-

bia, Australia, the Netherlands, UAE, and

many more locations around the world. If you

have not already joined the CM Group, I en-

courage you to do so and take part in a di-

verse array of management discussions.

I hope the growth of CM certification has you

excited about your own CM credential. Possi-

bly you are looking for an opportunity to get

10:20 AM4/20/2012 4/20/201244


involved in the Institute’s work to further the man-

agement profession? If so, I personally invite you to

consider joining the CM Advisory Council

(described in detail later in the newsletter.) It’s the

perfect opportunity to share your professional ex-

pertise and lend support to the management pro-

fession. Plus, Certified Managers will earn profes-

sional development credit for 2012 recertification.

In 2012, the ICPM Board of Re-

gents will

engage in

the strategic

p l a n n i n g

process to

set direction

for ICPM in

the form of

a 5-year,

long range

plan. Dur-

ing the process, Regents will re-

view ICPM’s mission, vision, and

value statements to determine

what changes need to be made to

keep pace with an ever changing

business environment. Regents

will evaluate the CM program,

analyze customer feedback and

review operational processes to

ensure the needs of current and

potential customers are being

met, and in a cost effective man-

ner. Additionally, Regents will

consider web, social media, and

other public forms of communi-

cation to assess their effective-

ness in growing the ―CM‖ brand

globally. It is no easy job to im-

prove upon the progress made

over the past 38 years to establish

ICPM as a leader in the certifica-

tion industry and the manage-

ment profession. The ICPM

Board of Regents looks forward

to this challenge and to sharing

the results of its strategic plan-

ning efforts with you in the next

ICPM newsletter.

III. From the ICPM Board of Regents

From the Chairman—Carl Taylor, CM, MBA

At its Fall 2011 Board of Regents meeting, ICPM elected new officers for 2012—2013. Officers serve a 2-

year term and take office immediately following election. The board chairman is the chief elected officer

Telecommunication Managers at CYTA Work Toward CM Certification

The island of Cyprus—located in the Eastern Mediterranean Sea just east of

Greece—is gaining notoriety by developing its human resources. The 3rd CM certi-

fication program in Cyprus since 2011 is in progress under the corporate sponsor-

ship of CYTA, a semi-government organization established with the aim of provid-

ing, maintaining and developing a comprehensive telecommunications service,

both nationally and internationally. CYTA is the leading provider of integrated elec-

tronic communications services in Cyprus.

Making the best of the island’s geographical location, CYTA has developed an ex-

tensive submarine fiber optic cable network linking Cyprus with neighboring coun-

tries such as Greece, Israel, Syria, Lebanon and Egypt and, by extension, with the

rest of the world. At the same time, CYTA has also developed a satellite earth station, establishing Cyprus

as a regional telecommunications hub.

As the leading technology company in Cyprus, CYTA places great emphasis on the development of its hu-

man resources, which play a critical role in its success. Within this context, and in order to evaluate the

CM certification program, CYTA sent three of its officers to participate in and evaluate the first open CM

Program administered by ICPM’s Authorized Training Partner, Innovage Consulting. Following a positive

evaluation, CYTA proceeded with hosting its first in-house CM Program for seventeen CYTA managers.

The CM Program is currently in progress and all seventeen managers have passed one of three CM certifi-

cation exams.

Mr. Photios Savvides, CEO of CYTA (pictured above), had this to say,

―CYTA offers the very best in training and tools to its human capital in or-

der to excel in its challenges and competition. The CM certification pro-

gram was chosen following a thorough evaluation of a CM pilot program.

We sincerely feel that the CM Program will be both useful and beneficial to

our managers.‖

Abhishek Pitti, CM Selected for Harvard University Scholarship

Mr. Abhishek Pitti, CM, was recently awarded a scholarship from the prestigious Harvard

University in Cambridge, MA, USA. The scholarship will fund graduate studies in business.

Mr. Pitti is currently employed as an engineer with Gulfstream in Savannah, Georgia. He

was CM certified in October 2009.

Invitation to Join the CM Advisory Council

Would you like to be part of ICPM’s development team? Would you like to contribute to the continuous

improvement of the CM certification? Would you like to assist in the future development of CMs? If so,

ICPM invites you to consider participating on its NEW CM Advisory Council.

The purpose of the CM Advisory Council is to involve CMs and other management experts in the de-

velopment and review of ICPM’s certification exams and learning products. The Council also prepares

interested candidates for future service on the ICPM Board of Regents.

CM Advisors serve an initial 1-year, renewable term in one of two roles:

Exam Advisors participate in ICPM sponsored job task analyses and write and review questions

for ICPM exams. As an Exam Advisor, you will receive online training in question writing and re-

view. Your time commitment will be nominal – you will be asked to write 1 or 2 questions and

participate in 1 online meeting per month.

Learning Advisors evaluate learning formats and content, and provide feedback on new ICPM

learning products. As a Learning Advisor, you will be asked to review learning formats and con-

tent that relates to your area of expertise (e.g., leadership, human resources, customer service,

accounting, etc.). In addition, you will have the opportunity to write practice questions and case

studies to support existing ICPM learning products, as well as provide feedback on new products.

Eligible candidates for the CM Advisory Council must possess a minimum of 5 years of recent man-

agement experience and be CM certified with current recertification status. CM instructors, facilitators

and ICPM Authorized Partners may also participate; however, they are restricted to the role of Learning

Advisor only.

Applications for the CM Advisory Council are now being accepted (15-20 candidates for each role). To

apply, click here to log on to the ICPM site, fill out an application form, and upload a copy of your re-

sume. Once initial openings are filled, future vacancies will be filled from the remaining candidates.

The CM Advisory Council serves an essential role in the production of high quality exam and learning

products, which will develop the next generation of managers. Questions about the role of Exam Advisor

can be directed to Drew Koch at [email protected] [PH: 540-568-3245]. Questions about the role of

Learning Advisor can be directed to Jonathan Lutz at [email protected] [PH: 540-568-4571].

Frequently Asked CM Questions . . . . .

1.) ―I’ve forgotten to recertify. How do I bring my certification current?‖

Certificants must recertify annually by February 28th, in order to maintain ―current‖ CM status and con-

tinue to use the ―CM‖ professional credential. If you have not yet recertified for 2012, your account has

been temporarily locked. You can reinstate your account by following the steps below:

Go to http://www.icpm.biz

Login and follow the recertification instructions that appear.

If you have neglected to recertify for more than one year:

Contact ICPM at [email protected] to request a Certification Renewal Form.

NOTE: All CMs receive an email notification in January of each year with instructions on the recertifica-

tion process. A $50 professional fee is due by the end of February. Professional Development activities

and attestations to the Code of Ethics and CM Usage must be recorded by December 31st of 2012. CMARs

recertify with AALAS and should contact Sally Westlake at AALAS with any recertification questions.

2). ―I was CM certified in December of 2011. When do I have to recertify?‖

All CM applicants that are certified as of December 31st are required to recertify the next year. For exam-

ple, if you were certified on December 15, 2011, you would be eligible to recertify in 2012. Recertification

runs with the calendar year, and not the certification date. Recertification applies to the year ahead, thus,

2012 recertification covers the period January—December 2012.

Employers value CM certification because it not only validates a level of managerial competency, it also

mandates continuing professional development to keep your skills up-to-date. Don’t jeopardize your CM

accomplishment by letting your certification lapse. Obtain the maximum value from your CM certification

by recertifying annually and engaging in continuing education regularly.

What do CMs say about their CM experience? “Obtaining the Certified Manager (CM) credential was a

remarkable milestone in my professional career. The overall experience, knowledge gained, and oppor-

tunity to test my understanding of the CM Body of Knowledge has proven itself to be worthwhile time

and time again. Building a solid knowledge foundation at any point in a manager’s career is vital as ref-

erencing theories, models, and processes may best equip a manager to lead organizational efforts to

meet established goals and objectives. I have been fortunate to be a part of five sub-organizations within

my current parent organization and I consistently find myself matching up CM BOK contents with past

experiences to make strategic decisions. I am honored to be a part of this exceptional network of profes-

sional managers.” Chris Meadows, CM is a 2010 graduate of the CM Program administered at James

Madison University. He is currently employed as a Health Services Officer with the US Army.
