Certification Package: SGMP Microcredential: Ethics (Fundamentals)

The SGMP micro-credentialing program is designed to help SGMP members develop specific expertise across core competencies for government meeting planners. Members can demonstrate this expertise by completing five (5) hours of professional development in any core competency. Hours can be earned online or in-person at chapter or national events. The Ethics Microcredential will enhance your skills as a meeting planner in the domain of ethics, and demonstrate your expertise across three levels: Fundamentals, Advanced, and Expert. The fundamentals level will cover tips for effective budget preparation and management, including understanding regulations, guidelines for purchasing, and budget adjustment strategy. 

Getting Started

Each core competency begins with the CORE course. This course is available on-demand 24/7 on the SGMP Learning Platform at https://learn.sgmp.org. Courses vary from 30-60 minutes each and cover the must-know topics for each core competency.

Additional Hours

Once you have completed the CORE course, you must complete an additional four (4) hours of professional development. To ensure that all students have been exposed to comprehensive education on each topic, relevant both nationally and locally, hours must be earned as follows:

  • Two (2) hours must be completed at the local chapter level. These hours may be earned in any format (virtual or in-person). If you do not have a local chapter, you may select any chapter relevant to your work and complete your required hours through that chapter.
  • Two (2) hours may be earned via SGMP National, at your local chapter, or via another chapter. These hours may be completed in any format including learn.sgmp.org (on-demand), virtual synchronous education (e.g., webinars), or at in-person events such as the National Education Conference.

Certificate

Once you have completed the required hours to earn your micro-certification, you will receive an electronic certificate demonstrating your expertise. Certificates will be issued with the name of the competency and the level of the certificate, e.g., “Ethics: Fundamentals.”  

*You must pass the CORE course and earn 4 additional domain hours, at least 2 of which must be earned at your local chapter.
