GIMI Level 1: Associate
Under this first level of the GIMI Certified Innovation Professional program, participants are taught the fundamentals of innovation.
These include demystifying innovation, determining innovation intent, identifying business opportunities, learning about fields of play, and creating innovation concepts and business cases.
Having an innovation certification ensures that professionals stand out in the workforce. Gaining a GIMI certification signals that an individual has the skills and knowledge they need to successfully carry out innovation initiatives for corporations around the world.
This is possible through GIMI’s active-learning framework, where learners instantly apply their newly gained knowledge to innovation projects. This way, participants come out of the program ready to innovate, even at Level 1.
Alongside these benefits, successful participants will gain access to GIMI’s network of over 800 innovation-certified organizations and over 10,000 GIMI-certified innovators.
