Certified Professional Controller
The Certified Professional Controller (CPC) designation is a certification program for financial controllers or comptrollers focusing on the core business and operational knowledge required by controllers of business units, manufacturing plants, or regional locations. The CPC designation addresses challenges resulting from ongoing change due to mergers and acquisitions, implementation of new systems and processes, the outsourcing of a business process, or the move to a shared service center.
Requirements are a BS/BA in Accounting, Business or Finance, and 3–5 years of experience in a director or management role within the accounting, finance, corporate transaction processing or finance functions. Candidates must complete three modules, each followed with an online proctored exam. The program is administered by the Institute of Finance and Management (IOFM).

Famous quotes containing the words certified and/or professional:
“Faith means belief in something concerning which doubt is still theoretically possible; and as the test of belief is willingness to act, one may say that faith is the readiness to act in a cause the prosperous issue of which is not certified to us in advance.”
—William James (1842–1910)
“The belief that there are final and immutable answers, and that the professional expert has them, is one that mothers and professionals tend to reinforce in each other. They both have a need to believe it. They both seem to agree, too, that if the professional’s prescription doesn’t work it is probably because of the mother’s inadequacy.”
—Elaine Heffner (20th century)
