CIM | Chartered Managers Canada announces international reciprocity with the UK Chartered Management Institute (CMI)
CIM | Chartered Managers Canada has reached an exciting new milestone in international reciprocity. Holders of our Chartered Manager (C.Mgr.) designation can now obtain the CMI’s Chartered Manager (CMgr) designation through reciprocity. Conversely, all CMI Chartered Managers can obtain the Canadian equivalent. In order to obtain these designations, applicants simply need to provide evidence of chartered status and join the respective institute as a member. They must also adhere to its local professional requirements and continuing professional development commitments.
Why does the UK Chartered Management Institute promote the Chartered Manager designation?
Thousands of UK managers at all levels and across all sectors now hold a Chartered Manager designation and highly value it. In a recent report, the CMI polled over 500 Chartered Managers and found that Chartered Managers reported that becoming Chartered has made them significantly better managers and fast tracked their career growth. They also reported that they’ve become notably confident leaders, and that it’s also made a big impact on the results they deliver. The CMI strongly believes that all managers should view the Chartered status as being essential to their career development and progress, and we at CIM | Chartered Managers Canada are inclined to agree.

CIM’s reciprocity agreement with CMI is supported by a strong foundation in shared values. Both of our organizations strive to educate, empower and recognize managers within our respective countries through educational partnerships, professional development and professional designations.

In order to do that, both CIM | Chartered Managers Canada and the Chartered Management Institute recognize that the field of management is always developing and changing with the global business environment. That is why we value a commitment to continuing professional development in our designation holders and strive to provide opportunities for our members to develop their skills whenever possible.
