Competency Certification Course Equivalencies
The following Canadian courses have been approved by the WPiAM to meet the knowledge requirements of CTAM, CPAM and CSAM certifications as shown below. This is a growing list that will be updated as other courses are approved. There are other global educational offerings and certifications that also meet the requirements that are not listed here. Applicants who have taken these courses simply need to show proof of completion, and only need to demonstrate the required work experience, and that they have applied the competencies in practice.
Are you already Certified MMP or CAMP?
In general, anyone who has completed all of the courses in the MMP program will have the required domain knowledge in maintenance and reliability for either the CTAM or CPAM certifications. In addition to MMP, candidates will need to also successfully pass the CAMA exam or equivalent, for the CPAM certification, to fulfill proof of knowledge of ISO5500x, GFMAM Assessor and Landscape publications. Which of these certifications you might pursue would depend on your demonstrated work experience, skills and level of responsibility.
Similarly, anyone who has completed the full AMP program will have the depth of asset management knowledge required for a CTAM, CPAM, or CSAM depending on assessment of competency based on work experience. A subset of the AMP courses provides the depth of asset management domain knowledge required for the CTAM and CPAM certifications, when coupled with assessment of competency based on work experience. See the chart below for more details.
The certification demonstrates a professional’s understanding of asset management systems, and the ability to identify gaps that an organization may have against the ISO standards. Awarded through WPiAM following successful completion of the CAMA2 exam and demonstrated relevant experience.
