WorldatWork GRP and CSCP ® Certifications, Events and other Courses' Calendar 2025
Our GRP ® and CSCP ® certifications, events and other WatW and non WatW courses are delivered mostly, but definitively not at all only, for Continental Europe / the DACH region. Such delivery is typically live online (virtually from Zurich, Switzerland), but indeed also in-person at suitable locations or company hosted venues, or with self-study (with video) formats.
Please kindly check right below the 2025 Calendar with specific dates and times (DACH region/CET/CEST); unless shown otherwise, each course runs for 3 afternoons, 3 hours each (13:00 - 16:30 with 30' break).
Please also kindly note that the WorldatWork association has changed the title and content of a number of their certification courses. We are implementing the new certification curriculum from April 1st 2025 onwards. Exams already passed, or to be passed, with the existing courses to be discontinued, will be recognized by WorldatWork anyway.
