On the road to obtaining the industry’s first and sole professional designation, the Certified Outsourcing Professional (COP), but can’t travel to attend the Master Class? No problem – we’ll bring the class to you.
The online version, developed by the IAOP and Academic Alliance Partner, Syracuse University, makes it easier than ever to earn half of the 150 points needed towards certification.
Is the online course different from the classroom version?
The online version mirrors the classroom version by providing in-depth learning of the Outsourcing Professional Body of Knowledge (OPBOK) delivered using multimedia techniques to keep students interested, as well as support from the lead teacher and IAOP mentors. You will be taken through ten modules covering the end-to-end process of outsourcing. To advance through, you will be required to correctly answer ten questions per module. You will earn the same 75 points you could earn if attending the instructor-led version.
Even though students aren’t all sitting in the same room, they are exposed to provocative ideas about outsourcing and make important, long-lasting contacts that add value to their outsourcing practices.
