CPIPSM Recertification
Retaining the CPIP Designation
Once the CPIP is conferred, recertification requirements must be met every three years to maintain a valid credential. The CPIP designation becomes invalid if there is failure to meet recertification requirements.
The purpose of the CPIP Continuing Certification Requirements Program is to:
- Assure credentialed individual has maintained skills in leadership, professionalism, innovation, quality and continuous improvement
- Assure that the individual has maintained knowledge of current industry practices and government regulations.
Each CPIP must satisfy the CPIP recertification requirements in order to maintain the CPIP credential. CPIPs are required to attain no less than 60 recertification points (RCPs) during the three year credential validity period and agree to continue to adhere to the ISPE-PCC Code of Ethics and Professional Conduct.
