The Chartered Management Institute (CMI) is the only chartered professional body in the field. Recent research undertaken by the CMI explored a wide range of benefits for undertaking management qualifications. 85% of respondents agreed that their qualification had improved their own and their teams’ performance, and over half advised that their qualification had helped them in gaining a promotion. 78% of employers agreed that qualifications provide quality assurance for customers and that the benefits outweighed the time, money and effort invested in obtaining them.
