Course Pre-requisite, Certification Eligibility and Competency for 200-300-400 & 5000 Level

Learn about the pre-requisite of the different course levels for BCM Institute's courses. Each level, of course, is closely related to the competency level "Know-Do-Manage". 

As there is no pre-requisite except for the 400-level courses, it is important to note that the eligibility for the specific certification after successful completion of the qualifying examination is based on years of direct experience.  You must apply for the certification after completing the course and the examination.
