Can you do APMG Change Management certification online?

Yes, you absolutely can. The APMG Change Management Foundation and Practitioner exams are both available as online proctored assessments, and accredited training providers like Twenty2 Collective deliver the full course virtually. This means you can complete your training and sit your exam from home or the office without needing to travel. The online exams follow the same format, syllabus and pass criteria as in-person sittings, so your certification holds identical weight regardless of how you take it.

How does the online exam actually work?

APMG uses a remote proctoring platform where a live invigilator monitors you through your webcam and screen share. You will need a stable internet connection, a quiet room, a working webcam and microphone, and a valid photo ID. The Foundation exam is 40 multiple-choice questions in 40 minutes. The Practitioner exam is scenario-based with 40 questions in 80 minutes, and you can reference the official manual during this paper. Results for the Foundation come through almost immediately, while Practitioner results typically arrive within a few days.

Is an online Change Management course as effective as face to face?

When the course is run by an experienced facilitator with a genuinely interactive format, the learning outcomes are comparable. At Twenty2 Collective our virtual sessions are instructor-led, with group exercises, real-world case studies and coaching built in. We have seen strong pass rates across both delivery modes. The key difference is flexibility. Online delivery removes geography as a barrier and lets participants join from anywhere in Australia or beyond. If collaboration and connection matter to you, look for a provider that prioritises live interaction over pre-recorded content.

What do I need before booking the online course?

There are no formal prerequisites for the APMG Change Management Foundation qualification. A general understanding of how organisations operate and an interest in leading or supporting change is a solid starting point. If you want to progress to Practitioner level, you will need to hold the Foundation certification first. Most providers, including Twenty2 Collective, offer combined Foundation and Practitioner courses so you can achieve both in a single training block and avoid scheduling twice.

If you are preparing to sit the APMG Change Management exam, Twenty2 Collective runs accredited Foundation and Practitioner training in Perth and online. We keep our cohorts small so you get real coaching, not just slides. See course details.
