What are Professional Development (CICP) Points?
Professional Development (CICP) points are used in the renewal process of the Certified International Credit Professional (CICP) Certification. The renewal process requires CICP certification holders to earn 3 Professional Development (CICP) Points to remain in "Good Standing" during their pre-assigned 12-month period. CICP points may be recorded on your Professional Development form that is sent out prior to your CICP renewal date. If you need a replacement Professional Development form or further information on earning your points, please contact Jill Wills at + 1 410.423.1840 or jillw@fcibglobal.com
