ICCIFP’s Board of Trustees, with the assistance and advice of professionals in relevant fields, has developed a credential that will recognize accepted levels of expertise in the profession, with the goal of improving professional standards in construction financial management. However, no credentialing program can guarantee professional competence. In addition, given the frequent changes in construction financial management (including, but not limited to, technology, financial standards and tax regulations), ICCIFP cannot warrant that the exam materials will, at all times, reflect the most current state of the art. ICCIFP welcomes constructive comments and suggestions from the public and the profession. For more information about the ICCIFP, visit their website at http://www.iccifp.org.
