What an exciting development in the field of (customer) experience management! It will be interesting to see how this program will fare with the other training programs and certification bodies out there already. Although there is something to be said for having a diverse field of methodologies and competing schools of thought, I miss a basic shared approach that combines and aligns the best practices out there into a single, internationally recognised framework. XM Masters seems to build on its earlier iterations of XM Fundamentals (XMF) and XM Professional (XMP) certifications which implies a solid background and who knows represents a shot at the brass ring !
