Join the MRC Certification Committee as a Public Member

We're looking for a passionate, engaged individual to serve as a Public Committee Member on the MRC Certification Committee.

As a voting member, you'll help guide the direction of our certification programs, ensuring decisions reflect not just industry priorities, but the public interest.


What’s a Public Committee Member?

A Public Committee Member is a representative of the consumers of services provided by certified professionals. You’ll bring a unique and vital perspective to our decision-making—one that’s independent of the eCommerce, payments, and fraud prevention industries.

What We’re Looking For

We want someone who:

  • Offers diversity of thought and can bring a fresh, objective lens to discussions.
  • Does not work in commerce, payments, or fraud prevention.
  • Puts the public interest first, especially when weighing industry-focused decisions.
  • Is open-minded, inquisitive, and committed to meaningful dialogue.
  • Understands the basics of certification and accreditation.
  • Has confidence and diplomacy—able to speak up and stand firm, while respecting group consensus.

About the Certification Committee

As a committee member, you’ll:

  • Vote on certification decisions and program updates
  • Review and recommend disciplinary policies
  • Serve on working groups and ad hoc initiatives
  • Contribute to the ongoing development and analytics of certification exams
  • Help identify partnerships that enhance the program

Make a Difference

Your perspective matters. Help shape a fair, forward-looking certification program that protects the public and strengthens our profession.

Applications are open through 1 August 2025.
