In 2024, Birkman is updating and enhancing the certification experience. The first change you will notice is that the name of the certification is changing to The Birkman Method Certification. The certification is now more than just learning about the Signature reports, and it unlocks new possibilities for other Birkman products. By completing The Birkman Method Certification, you will acquire the essential expertise to effectively apply Birkman in coaching individuals and organizations, enabling them to reach their maximum performance capabilities. The certification program comprises a comprehensive curriculum encompassing a newly updated four-hour interactive eLearning preparation course that includes interactive activities, videos, and audio, followed by a three-day workshop. During the workshop, you will build a playbook of experiences by engaging in dynamic group activities, participating in table discussions, analyzing case studies, and delving into real-life examples pertaining to each scale in the Birkman Signature Report. The workshop will revolve around the Signature Report, serving as the central focus for discussions, as well as the basis for interpreting and evaluating scenarios and cases presented in the classroom setting, and will include practice on how to use new digital resources to aid in virtual conversations with clients.
