Key LPMA Program Features

What Makes the LPMA Program Different

LPMA is a live, done-with-you professional training program, not a DIY or self-paced course. Instruction is delivered in real time with active participation, implementation, and instructor review. Attendance alone is not sufficient for certification. Participants must complete required homework, demonstrate implementation, and pass a final exam with a score of 80% or higher. Certification includes review of pricing structure, marketing foundation, and core business documentation to confirm readiness to work with clients responsibly. Enrollment is rolling to support professionals entering at different stages. While Continuing Matchmaker Education (CME) is encouraged, LPMA does not charge recertification fees or require periodic recertification.
