ICRM – CIGOA Partnership Ends

CIGOA informed the ICRM they planned to terminate the partnership agreement for the CRM/CIGO designation. The agreement has now ended. No new CRM/CIGO certifications will be processed. Current CRM/CIGOs should replace “CRM/CIGO” with “CRM, CIGO.”

There are two changes affecting the continuing certification process.A CRM, CIGO is responsible for:

  1. Paying any membership or maintenance fees billed to them by CIGOA, as well as their CRM annual dues
  2. Tracking and reporting CMPs as each organization requires

The ICRM is working on an alternative benefit for completing both certifications. Once this has been decided, an announcement will be made.
