They won’t force your boss to promote you, but they definitely give you an edge. Organizations are increasingly valuing sustainability expertise, and your certification shows you’re ahead of the curve.
If your certification lapses, you will need to retake the exam (GPM-b) or resubmit evidence as a new candidate (CSPMs, CSPMx, CSP, & CSF). Certifications last for five years so make sure to document your work and put together a case study during that timeframe!
No experience is required for the GPM-b™ certification. Higher-level certifications like CSPMx™ and CSF™ require a competence assessment that can't be passed without experience.
Refunds are available within 7 days of purchase, provided you haven’t started the exam or accessed course materials. After that, all sales are final. (We’re generous, but not that generous.)
Nope! Your digital certification badge and verification are 100% free. Flaunt your badge on LinkedIn, your email signature, or your Tinder profile—no judgment.
Many companies reimburse certification costs as part of professional development. Check with your HR department—you might be sitting on free money.
