International strategy execution and change management firm Kotter has launched a new program of six courses designed to help teams, individuals, and cohorts of diverse learners across organizations become Kotter Change Certified. The courses are available as instructor-led training, both in-person and virtual (remote), as well as through Kotter’s new, self-paced online platform.

“Five decades of empirical research on effective leadership and the science of change coupled with more than a decade of learnings through our consulting business have taught us that professional, as well as personal, success hinges on a strong capacity for adaptability in the face of uncertainty,” said Dr. John Kotter, Harvard Professor, and Kotter founder. “We’ve introduced this certification program to help organizations and individuals meet and surpass strategic goals at greater speed.”

Kotter’s globally recognized change management methodology and tools are now available in an easily accessible format of six courses that allow professionals and organizations to build the change skills they need—at their own pace and on their own time, regardless of their location.

The program will give learners the tools to learn how to:

  1. Understand the art and science behind successful transformations
  2. Ignite urgency and build a guiding coalition
  3. Shape a vision and gain buy-in
  4. Remove barriers to enable action
  5. Generate wins to demonstrate progress
  6. Ensure sustainable implementation

Each course features insights from experts and interactive tools that can be paired with in-person Kotter training to accelerate results. Learners will earn a digital badge after each course that can be showcased on social media profiles and in email signatures, and those who complete all six courses will become Kotter Change Certified. Learners can also access an exclusive online community for additional networking and education opportunities.

“As the pace of change continues to increase, our clients have asked us for change management training that can meet people where they are and complement other skill-building programs,” said Kotter CEO Rick Western. “Kotter’s Change Certification Program provides an ideal avenue for building the skills needed to thrive in competitive markets. We look forward to helping even more people become the kind of leaders our world needs.”

The first change training course, which explores the art and science behind successful transformations, is now available for registration at www.kotterinc.com/registration. Subsequent courses will be launched in a rolling fashion in early 2023. Follow Kotter on LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter for updates.
