## Succeed in a Skills-Based Hiring World with a CMF® from INIFAC

With Dr. Eileen Dowse
As employers increasingly focus on demonstrated skills rather than job titles or degrees, professional certification can help facilitators clearly communicate what they know and what they can do.
Join Dr. Eileen Dowse as she introduces the International Institute for Facilitation’s wide range of professional certifications. Eileen will explain how credentials such as the Certified Master Facilitator® (CMF®), Certified Master Learning Facilitator® (CMLF®), and Certified Virtual Facilitator® (CVF®), who each certification is designed for, and what applicants must demonstrate to earn them.
You’ll learn:

• Which INIFAC certification best matches your experience and professional goals
• How competency-based certification differs from completing a training course
• What the application and assessment process involves
• How certification can strengthen your credibility and distinguish you in a skills-based marketplace
• How to evaluate whether you are ready to pursue certification

Whether you are an emerging facilitator, experienced practitioner, trainer, consultant, graphic facilitator, or organizational leader, this session will help you identify a certification pathway that reflects your skills and supports the next stage of your career.
Following the presentation, Eileen will answer questions about INIFAC’s certifications, competencies, assessment process, and the value of becoming certified.
