LOVELAND, Colo., Aug. 20, 2009 — Prosci announced this week the Advanced Change Management Certification Program which will become part of Prosci's standard curriculum for change practitioners and project teams.

"This program marks a significant milestone for Prosci as a research company. After nearly a decade of research with more than 2000 organizations, this is the first course that taps into the full potential of that research."

"In addition, we need internal teachers – those professionals who can guide the deployment of change management throughout the enterprise. This course will provide the needed foundation for these change professionals."
