Maintain Your Certification Credential

As the payments ecosystem evolves and the fraud challenges continue to grow, professionals earning the CPFPP credential need to stay up to date with emerging trends and changes by continuing their professional education. 

Every three years, CPFPPs must recertify to confirm their continued dedication to professional education and maintaining industry standards. Recertification requires one of the following:

  • Retaking the CPFPP exam or 
  • Earning 60 continuing professional education (CPE) credits within the three years since the last certification credential was received; at least 15 CPE credits required for recertification must be earned through the MRC programs

 

How to Earn CPEs?

The MRC offers valuable continuing education opportunities through our conferences, online learning courses, and volunteer experiences. 

Participants gain industry knowledge while earning CPE credits that can be applied toward eligibility or renewal requirements for industry certifications such as the Certified Payments and Fraud Prevention Professional (CPFPP) and/or a Certified Fraud Examiner (CFE) certification.
