Study Group Guidelines

For CMP Candidates | For Study Group Leaders

For CMP Candidates

CIC congratulates you for your efforts to promote professionalism in the meetings industry by becoming involved with the Certified Meeting Professional (CMP) program. As the administrator of the program - as is common for most certification programs - CIC does not offer review or study courses for program participants. CIC focuses on credentialing and exam development to maintain the designation's high degree of credibility.

Most CMP study groups are formed by CIC member organizations at the chapter level, as part of continuing educational efforts. Some CIC members offer CMP informational sessions at their annual meetings. We recognize the CMP support and promotion of CIC member groups provide by offering study groups. Study groups operate independently of CIC.
Most candidates report participation in such groups to be helpful, both educationally and as assistance in preparing for the examination. Research indicates that those who participate in study groups have slightly higher scores on CMP examinations than those who do not.

For CMP Study Group Leaders

In order to improve the accuracy and consistency of information offered by CMP study groups, the CMP Board and staff have expanded the Study Groups Guidelines as a reference for study groups and candidates. It is our desire to communicate to all parties involved the updated policies on the CMP program, and an understanding of the benefits and limitations of the study group experience.
Study group leaders should carefully review the guidelines and recommendations detailed in the documents available on this page. It is the study group leader's responsibility to stay up to date on CIC policies and procedures.
