Corporate Training and Certification

Tailored Agenda, Confidentiality

Get the value of external expertise and add lasting value to your business

Create or improve the results of in-house Integration Teams, staffed by your employees: training, certifying, mentoring, and supporting them to deliver your future integrations.

Why Train and Certify Multiple Employees?

You will need a team to integrate your current and future acquisitions

Common approach

Common terminology

Organizational understanding of hierarchy and duties

Learning inclusion

A corporate class is recommended when all students are from a single business. The privacy of the group allows

  • Students to speak about acquisition-specific topics and hold confidential discussions with the instructor
  • The client to set the pace and schedule of studies
  • Custom training content to be created and included (for an additional fee)

Benefit from the shared experience of learning with your colleagues and gain from the freedom to learn, digress, and discuss together the best approach for your specific integration.

Delivery Types

The following methods of corporate training are available:

Private Cohort

Cohort of students connecting together

Each week the student cohort is assigned lessons to study online. A review meeting is held at the end of the week to discuss and ask questions about what they have learned with an instructor.

The cohort is a popular way of being held accountable for completing the training and certification, while still allowing self-paced study.

Minimum of 4 students

Private Live Remote

Remote class icon

Live training taught remotely over the Internet, using online meeting tools.  Discussions with your instructor can be acquisition-specific and confidential.

The schedule can be agreed to match your needs and availability. Typically scheduled as either 3½ full days, or 7 half days of study.

Remote training is popular when students are in disparate locations. 

Minimum of 6 students

Private Classroom

Live training taught at your business location. Discussions with your instructor can be acquisition-specific and confidential.

The schedule can be agreed to match your needs and availability. Delivered via 4 full days of study. Incurs additional travel expenses.

Addressing the needs of lower-mid and mid-size M&A

Small and mid-size businesses are different to large businesses, so why integrate them the same way?


Our training is written from the ground up to suit the needs of Small, Lower-Mid and Mid-size Businesses (SMBs).  Training should be taken before a deal gathers momentum as acquisition integration begins during the Due Diligence period.

  • Custom topics can be commissioned. Contact us for details.

The Path to Certification

Upon completing the final assessment in the training, students become Certified Acquisition Integration Managers (the CAIM® designation). 

All assessments are taken online. This requires each of the classroom students to have access to the Internet to complete them.
