The Certified Diversity Professional (CDP)® credential will empower you to effectively lead day-to-day inclusion efforts, as well as increase diverse representation. Beyond black-and-white and political correctness, the CDP® provides a dynamic, global framework for you to improve workplace equity, as well as change the organizational culture.
The CDP® assessment includes two portions: a peer-reviewed Candidate Project and an exam. Both portions of the assessment must be completed within one (1) calendar year from your date of registration. If your Certification timeframe expires, your access to IDC's learning management system will automatically expire and a $350 Exam Change Fee is due prior to account reactivation. Please budget your time accordingly.
Call 1-800-983-6192 for a Promo Code if your group has 3 or more Candidates.
Please note: this form is for CDP® registrants in Europe, the Middle East, and Africa and Asia Pacific. It begins at 10:00 CET (4am ET). If you are in North or South America, you may find our Americas program better fits your schedule. The Americas and EMEA+APAC programs are structured the same and use the same presentations. However, the EMEA+APAC program is offered on a different time zone and discussions are geared to the regional nuances of participants.
