CMM Testimonials

Vanessa Kane, CMP, CMM
"I take my career very seriously and love what I do. This certification provides me the opportunity to learn grow and expand my knowledge. I'm grateful to have been a part of the process. "

Mollie Mercado, CMP, CMM
"As senior meeting professionals, we all need an opportunity to focus our thinking on the strategic aspects of our businesses or jobs. The CMM program created the perfect environment for that strategic thinking. "

Laura Bohannon, CMP, CMM
"I returned to my office and immediately started designing new ways of doing things better! The CMM program truly teaches us to think about everything on a higher, more efficient and effective level. I will take many of the tools I learned and implement them into my professional and personal life!"

Charlotte Picot, CMM
"The MPI CMM Course has been an exceptional experience for me in my career and personal development. The tools I learnt on the course are invaluable in helping me make the business case for events. Eric’s Kaufman’s presentation on ‘Leadership Development’ was hugely inspirational and gave me real insights into strategic leadership. Likewise the Measurement & Metrics presented by Elling Hamso showed me the value of ROI in our current challenging economic climate. The CMM course also gave me the opportunity to network with senior meeting planners and the rare opportunity to openly share thoughts with a large room peers who share similar industry challenges. Congrats to the CMM 2010 alumni – I feel privileged to be among you. Thank you Miranda and the rest of the MPI team for such a fantastic course."
