Give your clients numbers instead of assumptions.

FAQ

Certification and status.

How long is the certification valid?

Three years. You renew it with at least two OQM projects of your own in that time or with a refresher module including a practice case. Case Clinics count as professional development.

When am I an OQM Active Consultant?

When you are certified, bookable for clients and actively consulting with them. You then get your own profile page and can be named on the OQM website. The status is confirmed every 24 months: with at least one client project in that time and an up-to-date profile page.

What if I have no projects for a while?

Without a client project in 24 months, your profile page is paused; your certificate stays valid. If it has expired, you reactivate it with the refresher module, without repeating the training.
