The Professional in Value Management (PVM) is the consistent continuation of his professional career from value analyst to value manager for the value analysis practitioner. The certification to PVM is achieved with a relatively low project effort. At least two VM projects must be self-directed, with no time-consuming criteria. The verification will be provided in an interview between the jurors and the applicant based on the project documentation. The projects must contain essential VM-specific methods and features. The following documents must be submitted to the IITF Certification Center:

APPLICATION FOR PVM CERTIFICATION AND AT LEAST ONE WA / VM PROJECT DOCUMENTATION

After a positive assessment of the application by the jury, the PVM certificate is issued by the IITF certification center. The cost of the PVM certificate conduct 250 Euro incl. VAT. A granted PVM certificate is valid for 4 years. Then a re-certification is required, which is first carried out by a self-assessment of the applicant using a VM logbook and can be reviewed by the certification center in a personal interview.

Note: If a PVM is also a Certified Trainer, ie a Trainer in Value Management (TVM), PVM Re-Certification is one of the prerequisites for obtaining the TVM Certificate. Trainers without a valid PVM certificate will not receive any certificates of attendance from the IITF for running their seminars. With a valid PVM certificate and at least two years of experience as a PVM, you have the opportunity to attend a trainer seminar.
