Presentación del curso
In today's dynamic world, organisations across all sectors must remain adaptable to external shifts whilst nurturing an internal capacity for change. By providing structure, communication, and employee involvement, effective change management promotes resilience, encourages innovation, and maintains employee morale, contributing to long-term organizational growth and sustainability.
This tutor-based online certification programme provides a step-by-step guide through the change management process, understanding its evolution and most prominent theories; reflecting on the key enabling factors and challenges; and applying adequate methods and practical tools such as the development of a change management plan tailored to each participant which will ensure its relevance and use even after the end of the course. Exposure to both theory and practice ensures that participants not only comprehend theoretical concepts but also develop the practical skillset and acumen necessary for successful change management initiatives in their respective work environments.
¿Quiénes participan en este curso?
This course is designed for professionals involved in institutional capacity building and organizational development, whether they are professionals leading, facilitating, or advising on such initiatives and change management. The course draws on scenarios particularly from the world of development cooperation, coordinated by international development agencies, civil society organizations, government sectors, NGOs, and the private sector.
In this regard, the course is intended for professionals who wish to promote change within organizations, understand and shape organizational structures, systems, strategies, and culture, and navigate the complexities of system capacities beyond individual capabilities and training. This goes in line with the holistic nature of change management which requires contribution at the individual, team, and organisational levels.

How will I learn?
This course is designed to provide comprehensive support for your learning journey. It includes eight self-paced modules, as well as knowledge tests, weekly individual assignments, case studies and a debate forum to foster group discussion. The estimated required effort is of 7 hours per week.
Furthermore, a tutor will provide you with individual feedback on your work, and a synchronous learning space will be created during the weekly online events, which last approximately 90 minutes. We believe that this combination of self-paced modules, interactive activities, and individual support/coaching will help you to gain practical competencies to design, manage and implement change.
