The Balanced Scorecard Professional (BSP) course has been developed for executives and members of balanced scorecard teams who want to learn how to build, deploy, and sustain scorecard systems. It is also for professionals who have an existing scorecard who want to turn it into a robust automated system. Content focuses on Balanced Scorecard strategic planning and management, and is fully consistent with the basic concepts and terminology originated by Drs. Kaplan & Norton.

"Professional certification is vital in this field" says Clive Keyte, Managing Director at Intrafocus. "Although the Balanced Scorecard has been around for more than 20 years, there are still many misconceptions about its use in both the public and private sector."

Certification is awarded by the George Washington University College of Professional Studies and the Balanced Scorecard Institute, the original certifying body for balanced scorecard professionals worldwide.
