No, ACCP does not offer a certification program but through The ACCP Forum program, participants can gain foundational knowledge about the full breadth of corporate citizenship work. It is an immersive training program that offers foundational knowledge and the opportunity to form a peer group that participants can lean on throughout their career. Participants do receive a certificate of completion at the conclusion of the program.
In addition to The Forum Program, ACCP offers several educational programs throughout the year that provide practitioners to gain knowledge and stay up to date on trending topics.
