MoV®

MoV®

MoV® (Management of Value) of provides essential guidance on maximising value and making better use of resources.

The definition of value proposed by MoV embraces both monetary and non-monetary benefits, and argues that the subjectivity of value increases the need for it to be actively managed. MoV provides a method, which is supported by techniques, in order to allocate scarce funds as effectively as possible.

MoV has evolved from many years of successful value management practice and is relevant to portfolio programmes and projects. The guide is aimed at individuals who direct, manage, support and deliver portfolios programmes and projects.

Organisations and professionals rely on MoV, a successful, proven methodology, to in order increase the value they deliver and make better use of resources.

I recently passed the MoV® Foundation exam through PeopleCert and I have received my certificate. Is there a specific logo that I have rights to use in my communications?

Any individual who would like to include information on their MOV certification on a business card needs to take note of the following:
 
An AXELOS Trade Mark logo (e.g. the MoV® Swirl) cannot be used on business cards as they advertise a person/company and not the associated product.
 
An AXELOS word mark can (e.g. MoV®) be used on a business card as long as the correct symbology is used. For example:
Joe Bloggs
MoV® Accredited Trainer
 
Where practical (if it can be included legibly) the Trade Mark acknowledgement statement should also be shown. For example:
Joe Bloggs
