Introducing the Kanban Coaching Professional (KCP) Credential Exam
Kanban University, in its constant pursuit of excellence for our students, is pleased to announce NEW advanced testing requirements for the Kanban Coaching Professional (KCP) Credential.
As we experience growth in the Kanban community, we are working to ensure that the quality and professionalism of the KCP Credential remains exemplary and consistent. For that reason, we are introducing a KCP exam to attain the Kanban Coaching Professional Credential (a one-time credential activation fee applies).
The KCP is an advanced-level credential. Successfully passing the KCP exam demonstrates not only full and comprehensive mastery of the Kanban Maturity Model and Kanban Coaching curriculum, but also the skill to lead and evolve an organization to higher levels of maturity. The public will be able to clearly recognize a KCP as an expert in their field and trust that they hold a specific set of effective coaching tools that lead to better business outcomes.
Taking the KCP exam is optional and not a mandatory part of class registration. Every student to complete the (newly renamed) Kanban Coaching course will still receive a certificate of completion from Kanban University.
KCPs certified before May 31, 2023 will NOT have to complete the exam to receive their credential.
