What qualifications do China consultants possess?
In nearly all cases, there are no mandatory qualifications for China consultants to hold. Exceptions may be drawn for medical professionals who have already attained a formal level.
The accreditation of Management Consultants is governed by the International Council of Management Consulting Institutes (ICMCI). This council has approximately 50 member institutes internationally. At present, the award of Certified Management Consultant (CMC) is the only internationally recognized accreditation that is not pertinent to the technical elements of the consultant’s practice.
