Practicum Schedule
Becoming a Certified Professional in Training Management (CPTM™) is a three-step process. Step 2 is completing a multi-day live, virtual practicum where you will apply the concepts and tools from the eLearning modules. To get the most out of your virtual practicum, we recommend starting the self-paced eLearning modules at least six weeks before your chosen practicum date.
