"Certified management consultant" (CMC)[1] is an international professional certification established in 1967 for management consulting professionals, awarded by institutes in 50 countries (as of February 2014).[2] The CMC enjoys global reciprocity; consultants certified in one country are recognized in most other countries. The standards for CMC in technical competencies and professional conduct were developed by international associations; in the US, such an organization is the Institute of Management Consultants USA,[3] and internationally, The International Council of Management Consulting Institutes (ICMCI).[4]
