The awarding body’s page Fees, dates and entry requirements are there, not here.

What it is

A credential specialised in exhibitions rather than meetings in general: floor plan design, space sales, exhibitor management, operations and safety, and measuring the return for both exhibitors and visitors. It is built on learning modules, of which the candidate chooses a number and passes their exams.

Who it suits

Managers of trade and specialist exhibitions, and people working in space sales, exhibitor services and exhibition hall operations.

What it requires

Work experience in the exhibitions sector. The learning modules are the path, and no particular university degree is required.

How it is earned

Modules studied in person or online, each with its own exam, completed within a set period. Modules are held in cities around the world, including the Middle East.
