Extra info over het programma
You might notice that these competencies are more or less the same as for IPMA C. However, at a deeper detail level subtopics are part of the IPMA C exams but not part of IPMA D exams. Moreover, IPMA C exam candidates must demonstrate more often that they not only understand the subject matter, but can also apply it to a given scenario. IPMA D candidates must prove that they understand the subject matter, but are less often required to prove that they are able to put it to practice.
