Gain credibility and recognition with a CMP certification


The CMP (Credit Management Practitioner) is the only global credential designed to recognise exclusively the experience of the Credit Management Practitioner and promote further investigation into relationships that promote career development.

The CMP certification initiative has come about through the collaboration of seasoned Credit Professionals from around the world. It was noted that a large segment of credit and collection practitioners did not have access or opted not to join associations, with mechanisms to further develop and promote their careers. The decision was taken to address this shortfall and the resulting opportunity is described herein.
