Leadership & Practitioner Pathways

ACX for governance and leadership. CPP for hands-on practitioner excellence.

Global Capability Development

Professionals and teams across North America, Europe, APAC, and the Middle East.

Two credentials. Two purposes. One profession.

CX certification is not one-size-fits-all. The right credential depends on your career stage, learning preference, and professional context. BP Group offers two distinct pathways designed for different needs.

ACXAssociate Customer Experience

CX Leadership & Governance

BP Group's structured programme credential for professionals developing or advancing a CX career. ACX builds rigorous competence in customer governance, experience strategy, and stakeholder leadership — the skills that differentiate effective CX managers from reactive ones.

  • Entry-level to mid-career professional
Advanced Credential

  • Strategic CX process design and governance
  • Board-level communication and business case skills
  • Senior practitioners, Heads of CX, consultants
Also Covered: CCXP

How to choose the right certification path

There is no single correct path. Your best certification choice depends on where you are now, where you want to go, and how you learn best.

"I am building a CX career from the ground up"

Start with ACX

ACX provides the structured foundation, practical skills, and recognised credential that entry to mid-career CX professionals need. No prior CX experience required.

"I am a senior CX leader or independent consultant"

Consider CPP

CPP is designed for those operating at the strategic and organisational level of CX. It develops and validates the leadership, process, and commercial skills the role demands.

"I have 3+ years experience and want an exam-based benchmark"

Pursue CCXP

CCXP is the independent, globally recognised benchmark. It is the most portable and prestigious credential for experienced practitioners. ACX prepares you well for it.

Guides for every stage of your path

In a maturing discipline, credentials are the differentiator.

Customer Experience is no longer a soft function. It carries board-level accountability, commercial targets, and transformation mandates. The professionals who advance into those roles are the ones who can demonstrate rigorous, verified competence — not just accumulated time.

CX certification is the mechanism that makes competence verifiable, comparable, and portable across organisations, industries, and geographies.
