What is the difference between Certification (CRME) & the Certificate in Revenue Management?

Here is an explanation of the difference between the training course and the certification.

CERTIFICATE

The “Certificate of Revenue Management (Hospitality) is a 10-course online program for people in the hotel industry with less than 3 years experience in a revenue role, or for hoteliers new to the Revenue function. Participants receive the Certificate in Revenue Management (Hospitality) from HSMAI.  The cost is US$350 for Members and US$500 for non-members.  You will have access to all 10-courses for 12 months from your enrolment date so you can revisit sections of the course whenever you need to.

CRME

The CRME is a Certification meaning that HSMAI is Certifying that you are an experienced Revenue Manager capable of performing the set of functions that the global HSMAI Revenue Advisory Board has set out as being the standard for Revenue Managers.  You also need experience managing revenue to qualify. So, it’s a combination of your work experience and a study guide with an online exam you need to pass to gain the Certified Revenue Management Executive (CRME) Status.
