Certification


The Certified Construction Industry Financial Professional (CCIFP®) designation provides the construction industry with a third-party verification of an individual’s knowledge - essential to ethical financial management in the industry's complex environment.

Established in 2003, and today with more than 1,000 active CCIFPs nationwide, the CCIFP credential is the only standard to recognize that a financial manager truly knows the business of construction. Certification affords you a competitive edge over your peers, by demonstrating your commitment to your profession and the construction industry as a whole by completing a rigorous construction CPA exam.
