In today’s fast paced, ever changing business environment, an organisation’s ability to effectively respond to change is the key to survival and success. However, it is not the ‘organisation’ that decides when, why or how to respond, it’s the people within it. Organisation Development (OD) is rooted in the deep connection between business processes and structures and the people working with them.
Practising OD means balancing organisational growth, maturity and impact with human systems perspectives, to build an agile, resilient and emotionally intelligent workforce by promoting compassionate, ethical and sustainable leadership and people practices. It is concerned with creating high performing organisations and healthy cultures that foster a clear sense of purpose and meaning
Our OD Practitioner Programme has long been established as the leading programme for OD professionals across the world. This OD practitioner course aims to increase your knowledge and understanding of OD as a discipline, providing opportunities to develop your skills and equip you with practical tools and thinking strategies that will shape your personal approach to OD, fit for your business context.

The programme has been reviewed, updated and redesigned to integrate certification in the market-leading Denison Consulting’s Organisation Cultural Survey© and to embed your learning through your own real-life OD project; providing both the opportunity and support, for your new skills to make an immediate business impact.

The Diploma in Organisational Development Practice consists of three modules plus a follow up day where participants present the outcomes of their business projects. The face-face programme is delivered as 3 x two-day modules and the virtual programme as 4 x half day sessions. Each module consists of 6 x 90 minute sessions and a half day action learning set. The programme begins with a launch call and initial action learning set and concludes with presentations of participant’s action research project.
Participants will be supported in identifying and selecting an appropriate OD intervention as the basis for their Action Research Project in their organisation or client organisation. The project becomes the lens through which participants think, plan, act and reflect on their learning from the programme; enhancing their understanding of what it takes to practise OD effectively in their real-world context.
Participant should come to the programme with one or two ideas about an OD project that they will be working on as they go through the programme. It could be something that they need to deliver in their organisation or something that they think would value in future. This will form their Action Research project. As they go through the programme, they use the learning from each module and apply the learning to their project. In the action learning sets they share their progress with the rest of the set and receive support and challenge on how they can improve the intervention they have designed. At the final session participants will present their intervention to the whole group and receive feedback
Roffey Park Institute’s Diploma in Organisational Development is designed as a level 5 diploma programme. You will receive the Roffey Park Diploma certificate if you attend all programme sessions including Action Learning Sets, complete a learning log and case study, deliver a facilitated session and present a final presentation on your OD intervention that you will be working on during the programme. This Roffey Park Diploma in Organisational Development Practice is designed with practitioners in mind and therefore includes a variety of content, tools, and many opportunities for sharing experiences and learning from others.
As part of this Diploma programme, you will also complete Part 1 of the certification process to use the Denison Organisational Culture Survey. This comes with one free culture survey that can be sent to up to one hundred participants. You can use this survey in your work context or with a client organisation to diagnose and apply your learning. Full certification can be obtained by completing the culture survey and working with a senior consultant to overview the real client results as a preparation for your first client debrief.
