Why earn the CCSRM?

CSR spending without policy, objectives or evaluation looks generous but builds little trust and is hard to justify to the board. Planned programmes with stakeholder input, cultural sensitivity and proper reports build a lasting reputation with the community.

As a CCSRM you can formulate CSR policy, plan and run sponsorship and philanthropy programmes, manage community relations and evaluate and report each programme. This programme focuses on corporate giving and community work, not sustainability compliance.

Frequently asked questions.

Short answers to what people ask first.

How long does the CCSRM take?

The 2 core courses add up to 4 days of classes, live online. Each course ends with an online test and a work document.

Is the CCSRM aligned to NOSS?

Yes. It is a Certifyd certification aligned to NOSS Level 5 competency units. The certificate is issued by Certifyd by MITE, not by a government body.

Can I take one core course first?

Yes. Each core course is sold on its own with its own certificate, and it counts toward the CCSRM when you continue.

Where do the classes run?

Core courses run live online with a MITE trainer, so you can join from anywhere in Malaysia. The optional one-day Portfolio Development Workshop is in person.

How much does it cost?

The current live class prices are shown above. If a price is not published yet, it shows price on request.

Is the CCSRM recognised by employers?

The CCSRM is a Certifyd certification, aligned to NOSS Level 5 competency units. Each employer decides what it accepts, so the certificate makes checking easy: it names the units behind it, each course comes with a transcript, and any employer can verify it online in seconds.

How are you assessed?

Each core course ends with an online knowledge test (multiple choice) and a performance task: you produce a real work document. When every course is credited, you submit your certification assessment online, an assessor reviews it and a verifier checks the result. There is no oral test.

Can my employer pay for the CCSRM?

Yes. When you enrol, choose My employer will sponsor me. We make a private link you send to HR, and they pay by invoice. Teams can ask for a quote on the For companies page.

When do I sit the assessments?

At the end of each core course, then the certification assessment once every course is credited. The live classes run on the dates you choose.

Does the CCSRM lead to a JPK microcredential?

It prepares you for one. The JPK microcredential (Penyata Pencapaian) is assessed separately through PPT, recognition of prior achievement, against the same units. Your course certificates and transcripts become portfolio evidence, and the one-day in-person Portfolio Development Workshop helps you organise it. Certifyd does not award the microcredential.
