1 Update your resume

One of the first things you should do after getting your certification is to update your resume and online profiles. Highlight your certification in your summary, skills, and education sections, and use keywords that match the job descriptions you are targeting. For example, you can mention how your certification demonstrates your knowledge of contract lifecycle management, negotiation, risk management, compliance, and performance measurement. You can also include specific projects or achievements that showcase your contract management skills and results.

Iâ€™m my experience it helps to tweak your resume to match the keywords and skills listed in the job description and how they apply to the work you have done in the past.

2 Network with peers

Another way to leverage your certification is to network with other professionals who share your interest and expertise in contract management. You can join online communities, forums, groups, and associations related to contract management, such as the International Association for Contract and Commercial Management (IACCM) or the National Contract Management Association (NCMA). You can also attend events, webinars, workshops, and conferences where you can learn from experts, exchange best practices, and build relationships. Networking can help you stay updated on the latest trends, challenges, and opportunities in contract management, as well as expand your visibility and reputation.

I find that LinkedIn is a great way to network and meet new people with similar careers as well as following people for new insights. If you live near a city you can search the web for networking opportunities in your city. Sometimes face to face is still the best way to meet people.

3 Seek mentorship

A third way to leverage your certification is to seek mentorship from someone who has more experience and knowledge in contract management than you. A mentor can provide you with guidance, feedback, support, and advice on how to grow your career, overcome challenges, and achieve your goals. You can find a mentor through your existing network, your employer, or a professional association. You can also offer to mentor someone who is new to contract management or wants to pursue a certification, as this can help you improve your skills, confidence, and leadership.

4 Pursue further education

A fourth way to leverage your certification is to pursue further education that can complement and enhance your contract management skills. You can look for courses, certificates, or degrees that can help you deepen your knowledge of contract management topics, such as legal aspects, financial analysis, business strategy, communication, or technology. You can also explore related fields, such as project management, procurement, supply chain management, or business analysis, that can broaden your perspective and increase your versatility. Further education can help you stay relevant, competitive, and adaptable in the dynamic contract management environment.

5 Showcase your value

A fifth way to leverage your certification is to showcase your value to your current or potential employers. You can do this by highlighting how your certification helps you deliver quality, efficiency, and innovation in contract management. You can also demonstrate how your certification helps you reduce costs, risks, and disputes, and increase revenue, satisfaction, and collaboration. You can use metrics, testimonials, case studies, or portfolios to illustrate your impact and achievements. Showcasing your value can help you secure recognition, promotion, or new opportunities in contract management.

I would like to add that sometimes you might not have every skill listed on a job description or you might be a few years short of the length of service they are looking for. Donâ€™t sell yourself short! If you want the job, apply for it! You miss 100% of the shots you donâ€™t take.
