The IACPT has seen a meteoric rise to affluence
and membership in recent years, as financial executives, managers,
and degree holders strive to maintain and augment their education,
credentials, integrity, and skill sets. The IACPT Board is the
regulatory body for the much sought after IACPT designations
and credentials. The IACPT board certification requires passing
several levels of standards including: training courses, testing,
ethics and professionalism, degree, experience, and continuing education.
Acceptance into IACPT is a high distinction and requires the holder
to possess a graduate level portfolio of skills and knowledge.
IACPT approves and sponsors a multitude courses
in many countries around the world. Each course has a recommended
curriculum or topic coverage. Although our topic coverage or
Terminal Course Objectives contain major areas of focus, the
individual course provider has the flexibility to localize
and tailor a certification course to meet the local laws,
regulations, or even the local industry needs. As an example,
IACPT recognizes several educational providers and organizations
that already have a set of high-quality courses in different
areas, thus, our committee of professors and industry experts
will then review each course for its quality. IACPT also
reserves the right to review and approve copies of course
promotions, course notes, course exams and hand-outs.
All IACPT courses are expected to contain a
segment on ethics and professionalism. Ethics and Professionalism
varies due to government laws of each country. However, IACPT
certified trainers and experts should be able to teach on the
varying laws and regulations on the issues of: Integrity,
Conflicts of Interest, Self Dealing, Confidentiality, Privacy,
Securities Regulations and related statutes and codes.
The IACPT accredits
or approves a limited number of training providers in each market it operates in.
Each accredited provider must demonstrate to the IACPT Board that they have the
capability to offer the highest standard of training consistent with IACPT
curriculum and requirements, and the status of these providers is reviewed
on an annual basis to ensure that quality standards are maintained. The
IACPT encourages localization of course materials for each respective
region and country. As a result, administration and trainers for local
IACPT courses are eligible to conduct courses, but they first must
attain board certification or approval as IACPT faculty. Alternatively,
the IACPT arranges for certified and experienced lecturers to conduct
training programs in various locations around the world. |
